    egul105 replied to egul105's topic in Government

    thanks, but I already went through MEPS. I actually was sworn in as 1LT this past Tuesday. It wasn't a fun experience, but it wasn't that bad. What I can say is that it was a little humbling seeing all the 18 and 19 years old girls about to cry be...

15. Sponsorship in TX or LA for CRNA School

    egul105 replied to DSAC's topic in CRNA

    Just FYI,I checked into Capitol's stipend program a few weeks ago and they will only give stipends to students who are residents of Austin. I guess they are afraid if you moved down there that you would get homesick and move back home.
