Age For Naval Nursing Corps

Published

Specializes in Periop.

I am 31. I start my ADN program in Jan. 2010. I dont wanna wait and take more classes to start a BSN program. When I get my ADN in 17 months, I intend to start nursng and begin my BSN degree, which shouldnt take more than a year since I already have a Bachelors in another field. Hoping to get the hospital to pay for the BSN. Will I be too old to enter the naval nursing corps at 34 years of age? I am in perfect shape. Thanks for any info. What are some other benefits of having served in the naval nursing corps?

At the present time the age limit is 42, but as with anything in the military it is subject to change. Good luck with your schooling
