General discussion
This highly competitive program is available to full-time students about to begin their final year of academic study or professional training. Those selected for the program will become Commissioned officers in the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) and receive full pay and benefits of an active duty officer for up to 12 months just for finishing their education and training. In return for financial assistance, SRCOSTEP participants agree to work for the USPHS sponsoring agency as a Commissioned Corps officer immediately after graduation. The service obligation is equal to twice the time sponsored. For example, for nine months of financial support a SRCOSTEP participant commits to 18 months of employment with the division or organization that provided the support as a Commissioned Corps officer. To continue in a career as a USPHS Commissioned officer, SRCOSTEP participants must concurrently complete a 24-month obligation upon graduation.
