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!
Sorry for getting back to you late we have been busy with my husband graduating from nursing school. Every thing has happened in a non-traditional order for me or at least I don't know of anyone else who received their paperwork in the order I have. In February I got my official acceptance letter from the Navy. Then, 5/7 my scroll came in! YAY! It took 3 months. On 5/11 the nursing detailer called to say my orders are being processed. YAY! My recruiter said we are currently waiting on my commissioning paper work and I should commission by the end of the month. I am currently working on setting up my direct deposit and reviewing all the paper work they sent me. ODS is still on the schedule for August. Have you had any other news?
All I have heard was I'm waiting for the scroll to be signed and once the pay grade is approved I'll get my official orders. I was told I'll also be going to ods in August but I'm nervous that there is still so much left to do
I'm worried about the same thing! I have verbal orders to ODS and follow on orders to my first duty station but haven't gotten my official paperwork or even taken my oath of office. I hope this all comes through in time for August í ¾í´ží ¼í¿¼

Not yet. I'm assuming sometime in May I'll get it. They kinda just told me it's a waiting game at this point. Have you?
