1. LVN and Reclass in Army

   cens983 replied to MrsDean2022's topic in Government

   I believe the program you are looking for is the Army Civilian Acquired Skills Program (ACASP). Has an AMEDD recruiter told you that you will be to old by the time you receive your BSN? I'm a California 68C and a RN civilian side. Feel free to as...

2. HELP with Army Practical Nursing Specialist 68C

   cens983 replied to MariFrench's topic in Government

   This is a highly sought out MOS, and the 6 year contract is correct since it is such a long training. AIT is approximately 52 weeks in length, and it starts after Basic Combat Training. Phase 1 is at Fort Sam Houston (about 3 months), and Phase 2...

3. has anyone enlisted 68WM6 or 68W (army) or 4N0X1 (airforce)

   cens983 replied to confuerte's topic in Government

   68WM6 is no longer being awarded. It is now 68C. If your goal is to become a LVN, then enlist as a 68C. It is an entry level MOS, and you do not need credentials prior to enlisting.

4. Army LPN to Civilian RN/BSN - Doable? / Advice for becoming AF RN?

   cens983 replied to liz2897's topic in Government

   You can commission into the Air Force once you complete your first enlistment. Your unit may release you before your contract ends. If you elect to receive any incentives (bonuses, kickers, etc.), you may have to repay them back for ending your cont...

5. Air Force Reserve Nursing or Army Reserve Nursing?

   cens983 replied to GabsterL's topic in Government

   Enlist (join the military) first. Go to basic training(boot camp) then tech school(job training). Work full time for the military for a minimum of two years. Submit a packet for NECP. I believe you can contract into AFROTC and ROTC as long as yo...

6. Thinking about the Military

   cens983 replied to Murse_23's topic in Government

   My unit has been pretty awesome so far. I've seen other Soldiers make up drill on other weekends if they had something going on during a drill weekend. Schedules are given a year in advance, so I can adjust accordingly. However, all units are diff...

7. Bored and thinking

   cens983 replied to ggoodman's topic in Government

   Forward surgical teams, flight nursing, ccat and pararescue are a few I can think of. Your friend probably supervised a combat support hospital or something like it.

8. Thinking about the Military

   cens983 replied to Murse_23's topic in Government

   In my opinion, if you have an itching to serve right now and can afford the time, then enlist. If you do enlist, there is always a possibility of deployments/mobilizations which can affect your goal of becoming a RN. Also, your enlistment contract...

9. Thinking about the Military

   cens983 replied to Murse_23's topic in Government

   I'm not in the National Guard, but I am in the reserves. I'm going to assuming you want to enlist as as a 68W. BCT and AIT adds up to about 26 weeks . Will your school hold your seat while you are gone for training? There are a lot of 68 series i...

10. Air Force Reserve Nursing or Army Reserve Nursing?

    cens983 replied to GabsterL's topic in Government

    Oh right. If you decide enlist into active duty first, you can apply for AECP/NECP. The Air Force has a similar program as AECP called the Nurse Enlisted Commissioning Program. You will incur an additional active duty service obligation from both....

11. Air Force Reserve Nursing or Army Reserve Nursing?

    cens983 replied to GabsterL's topic in Government

    Recent Army 68C LVN/LPN graduate here. Army recruiters are able to tell you if there are 68C (LVN/LPN) available before you enlist or swear in unlike the other branches. If 68C isn't available, tell them you are willing to wait until a slot opens u...

14. SF Sequoia nursing program fall 2017

    cens983 replied to future_N_u_r_s_e's topic in School Programs

    Why did you guys pick SFSU Sequoia over others? I like the convenience. I live closer to main campus, but I do not want to deal with parking around State.
