Military Medical School and Being a Medical Officer
Dr. Saguil now works at the ‘Military Medical School,’ located in Bethesda, MD, right outside of Washington, D.C. USUHS has been around since 1972 and has graduated 5000 physicians. It is an allopathic (MD) granting degree. USUHS is part of the AMCAS application which is used to apply to the majority (except for Texas) allopathic medical schools.
USUHS doesn’t charge for applying! But that doesn’t mean you should apply, just because it’s free. You should truly have an interest/desire to be part of something bigger/something other than yourself.
1/3 of students have some prior association with the military, ROTC, Academy or prior active service.
