  1. Some bad news...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    I am so sorry to hear this. I just did not realize that it was this difficult to get into nurse corps. Just remember what Gen said. It took her three times. We musn't give up if this is our dream....

  2. Some bad news...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

  3. Some bad news...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    I have put a call into my recruiter to see exactly what I would have to do to reapply for next year. I hope I don't have to go through the whole process all over again. I think he said my MEPS...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    I have actually been looking at USPHS. Tried to get on their web site today but was having technical difficulties, so called and left a message with a recruiter. I know it is not the end of the...

  7. USAF Hospitals

    JazzyT replied to scout2505's topic in Government, Military

    I am not sure how the army does it, but I will be going on a recruiting tour for the AF in a couple of weeks to Travis AFB. It is for two days. We get to have dinner with some of the medical staff,...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    I have already started the application process (also started it in the last semester of my junior year). In fact, my recruiter wants to have my packet completed by this July. I am waiting to hear...

  10. ICU or OB/GYN Nursing, I need info!

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    Thank you so much for your response! I was starting to think noone was going to respond. If I read your post right, you are just now going into the AF (post above said not, thought maybe it was a...

  11. Questions about becoming NP in AF

    JazzyT posted a topic in Government, Military

    I have always thought I wanted to do ICU and then on to CRNA, but I have also thought about NP, so I am researching that a little further. I want to make the right decision. I liked my OB/GYN rotation...

    He just doesn't want to live in Ohio. We live in Indiana now, and I guess he just wants a change of scenery. I told him ultimately it is going to be where I can get the best experience. I am...

  13. USAF Hospitals

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    Does anyone know about the hospital at the USAF Academy? I would love to go to Colorado, but again want to get the best experience. I am thinking about Eglin, USAF Academy, Lackland, and Travis as...

  14. USAF Nurse Corps

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    You are so right, I do remember him talking about the fiscal year ending in October. I have been looking at the housing allowances, but have not looked at Ohio yet. I have looked at Florida, Texas,...

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    I live in Indiana, so I know about the winters...although it is not near as bad as in Ohio. That is why I was looking at the southern states as far as duty station, because I literally hate the cold!...

  17. USAF Hospitals

    JazzyT replied to JazzyT's topic in Government, Military

    Thanks for all the responses. My "dream sheet" will probably consist mainly of bases that offer NTP. Hopefully, then, the base that I go to for NTP will also be my first duty station. I know that...
