U.S. Military Increases HPSP Monthly Stipend 

The U.S. Air Force, Army and Navy each recently announced that they have increased the stipend associated with their Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) to $1,992 per month, effective July 1, 2009.  The stipend is adjusted each year to allow for cost-of-living increases and amounts to more than $20,000 annually.

The official web page of each military HPSP is listed below.  Please note that the Air Force had not yet updated its web page to reflect the stipend increase as of the date this article was published.
