Hi everyone, Just wanted to throw out there I didn’t get my orders cut until 17Dec2020 for the FY 2021 cohort. Hang in there!

I had asked a similar question during my application process, and was told by our Baylor contact that CCRN is the only extra certification they look for. Hope this helps!

FWIW, I have been accepted into the same class as MikeyD. Several of us who were accepted just took the Iowa Central Community College Intro to Organic and Biochemistry course to fulfill the application requirements and got in just fine. So if the rest of your packet is relatively strong (and your stats sound great to me), I think you should be fine. My suggestion is to focus on the GRE ?

YAAAAAASSSS!

MTF. Been in the Reserve for some time now so have been doing PHAs every year. My commissioning physical in 2018 was done at an MTF as well

@MikeyD you’re the man, thank you so much! I my recruiter must have misspoke about what I have pending regarding any waivers. You have been a gem on this thread, Sir.

Accepted by the board as well! Apparently I’m pending a couple admin things so I’m not calling everybody just yet. My recruiter says I’m pending a medical waiver but we can’t guess what that means because I’m PULHES 1 in every category. I guess I got an age waiver to commission so maybe it’s that? Also something is pending with my security clearance. I had to get my fingerprints redone about a month ago — that’s the only thing I can think of. I already have a secret security clearance so I was told I would not need a reinvestigation. Do you have any guesses/insight MikeyD? My recruiter thinks I should be safe and I can go ahead and tell people... Congratulations to everyone who got good news today. Those on the OML, hang in there — we’re all pulling for you!

If you do, you will go down in history as a hero to all of us. And if you believe in reincarnation, you will come back as an EAGLE — majestic!

Thanks itsnurseag and MikeyD!

Oh God I hope they aren’t reducing how many students they’re taking because of Covid ?. I feel like that’s a logical reason for not having admissions decisions yet. Feel free to tell me that’s ridiculous and I worry too much — please!

100% — I came back to my unit after an extended paternity leave, and seriously about half have either left or decided to go back to school to get away from bedside critical care =/

Thanks for clarifying MikeyD, that makes me feel a lot better!

(MODERATOR EDIT OF NAME) said there were over 200 applicants who submitted this year (!) Apparently a good amount of the active duty gets placed in another program for active military only. Anyone know anything else about that? I hope everyone on this thread gets in — good luck to all!

Hmmm, this thread seems to have died off... Did anyone who has been posting on this thread actually end up applying?
