Navy Nurse....waiting and wondering!

[Lace_09]

Hello all!

I have been watching this forum for quite a while now and figured that it was my turn to ask a few questions.:wink2:

I am going to be graduating with my BSN in June 09. I have always been interested in joining the armed forces and I am super excited about (possibly) getting into the Navy Nurse Corps. I have been working with my recruiter for the last month and I think I am almost ready to submit my packet. I have completed my interviews, physical, countless paperwork...

For all of you that have been accepted/selected, I was just wondering how compettitive the selection process is?? Has anybody not been accepted and for what reason (if you dont mind sharing)? I have a 3.7 GPA, have wonderful references, but I just dont know how well this will help me. I am worried about being a new grad....will this make me less competitive at the selection board as opposed to an RN with experience?

Any and all input or advice is greatly appreciated. I should be asking my recruiter these questions, but he is currently on a few days leave. So I find myself thinking about it constantly....

Thanks!

Hi there!

Have no answers for you, but actually had a question for you since I am going through the same process. I'm a couple of steps behind, still working on completing the medical form. Just curious, if you don't mind me asking, how was the interview?

Thanks!!

The interview is fairly easy. From what I got from it, all they really wanted to know was who I am in general...very laid back! Good luck! How has the process been for you?
