Hi Katharine! Thanks for reading it and offering comments :) I did have to do my first year of school away from my husband, and he joined me right before I started second year for his 3 year duty here in Maryland. So, yes, I see it may be tricky to get a solid 4 years out of the Army unless you're at a big place like FT Bragg or Hood where some people can move around jobs within the post. But, as a backup, I did see that many schools do let you transfer and it made me feel better going into…

I just started a Dental group if you want to join, and we can further our discussion there if you're interested. Also, I'm working on a Part II version of my post specifically geared towards applying to dental school, so let me know if you have any specific questions you'd like to see addressed there. Look forward to chatting with you some more! tag:ingearcareer.org,2012-04-05:6137739:Comment:18081 2012-04-05T15:59:05.621Z Katharine Leming http://ingearcareer.org/profile/KatharineLeming

<p>Grace, Great post! I would love to do something like this, but I don't know if the Army can support me being in the same place for 4 years in a row for dental school. Do you have a plan "b" for an unexpected transfer to Ft. Drum or other sufficiently rural post that does not have a dental school within a 1.5-hour radius? Is there a residency requirement after dental school? </p>
