If selected for a residency, an applicant is still required to meet the standards of either the civil servant or Commissioned Corps personnel system.  Most applicants are interested in applying to the Commissioned Corps, a lengthy application process.  If you are interested in becoming an officer in the USPHS regardless of whether you’re selected as a resident or would like to start the application process prior to the residency selection, please check the YES box on the Application Sites Form.  Pertinent information will then be forwarded to the Office of Commissioned Corps Operations (OCCO).

For additional questions on the different personnel systems, refer to the FAQ page, or discuss with one of the IHS residency program directors.
