Active Duty Navy Direct Accession FY 2017

Published

Greetings! I am a RN with about 1 years medsurg experience looking to apply for FY 2017 to the Navy for direct accession. Anyone else out there working on their packet or that have already submitted it? Please feel free share your experiences thus far, desired duty stations and any valuable info. Thanks!

I just found out a few weeks ago I was not selected, at all. Talking to my recruiter about submitting a reconsideration package

Hey JJrn18, BSN! I applied back in 2017 for critical care and I had only 6 months of experience back then and was not certified. I'm reapplying again this year since I had the time to make myself a competitive candidate by getting my CCRN, getting more leadership positions etc. my recruiter says my packet should go make it to the May boards and I'll find out by June. Don't give up! Work hard to make yourself a competitive candidate. í ½í¹‚

Found out I'm going to ODS in August! Now I'm just trying to decide where I want to be stationed. Either Portsmouth or San Diego, not sure which one to pick.

Inhayes, are you from the east coast or the west coast? I heard housing allowance goes further in portsmouth than san diego... both are awesome options though!! Congratulations!!

From the east coast but currently living in Colorado. I heard that too, but I also heard the area around Portsmouth isn't that great. I think I'm going to pick San Diego! Thank you!
