6 Months Experience As A R.N. Needed Prior To Being Accepted For Army Reserve STRAP

My package was approved for the September 8th board; however, I was denied an offer for commissioning because I did not have six months experience as a Registered Nurse.

I was told I needed to be working 30 hours per week for six months before I would be eligible for the BSN-STRAP.

My package was not approved for the October 20th board because of the aforementioned reason as well.

Has anyone else ever run into this before? My recruiter and I read the Army regulation 601-37, Chapter 22 from head to toe; however, a policy letter dated August (a month prior to my September package approval) stating that future applicants were required to be working 30 hours per week as a R.N. to be eligible for commissioning into the STRAP.

Thanks in advance.
