Re: Air Force inquiry
Ramoro,
I'm finishing up my 2nd year in the USAF CRNA program. The primary site for phase 1 is USUHS in Bethesda, Md. However, the AF does send 2-3 people a year to the Army program in San Antonio. As far as the VA, I believe they have a slot or 2 at the Army program, also. We have AF, a couple army, a good bit of navy, and a couple of public health slots at USUHS. This is the primary program for the USAF. The AF requires all applicants to have a minimum of 2 years at their current duty station, in addition to time in grade requirements, professional military education requirements, among others. The AF does not allow for direct accesssion into the CRNA program. However, it is possible to make the CRNA program your first assignment in the army, as long as you meet their list of requirements. I hope that this helps.
Eric
