Thank you so much to all your responses...if anyone else can think of anything else that could help me, feel free to post,i would greatly appreciate it

Thank you so much wtbcrna for your advice....i think i may be switching to go w/ the navy from what i've learned so far.....does anyone know the recruiting process?

:thankya: Thank you for your reply...to tell you the truth joining is something i feel that i need to do, but i also want to get the most i can out of it....i have been looking into the ncp program which the navy seems to offer unlike the air force....i want to make a career out of the military for one thing and the officer route is one that i'm definately interested in....i'm just trying to figure out whether the navy or the air force is the best route...:innerconf

Hello everyone, so i'm joining the military for the benefits and the all the other possibilities...so here is my situation, this whole time i was positive i wanted to join the air force but now i'm realizing that the navy seems to be giving more bonuses and educational benefits than the other services....so my question is navy or air force? i'm hoping to join as a emt and then later become a nurse....but i need the most i can get since i;m going to be signing about 4-8 yrs to this commitment, if not longer....thank you for all the help you guys can give me....:monkeydance:

Thank you wtbcrna, unfortunately i had a couple of issues w/ school and i cannot get financial aid, they say that i have too many credits and then a couple of my student loans went into default (i'm making payments for it but until i complete the agreement and it goes out of default i cannot apply for finaid)....:thankya: I guess i'll try talking to my recruiter and see what other options i can get

thank you all for your responses, they were very useful.....unfortunately i do not qualify for student loans or any kind of financial aid, which is one of the reasons that i wanted to join. i heard that there is a way to go to school and have the AF pay for plus give you a stipend as long as you sign year for year....does anyone know if this is true and how to go about it?...thanks:monkeydance:

Hello Everyone, I have a question ...I'm currently in the process of enlisting in the Air Force and want to further my education. I currently hold an associates in arts and want to get a bachelors in nursing. My question is how easy is it to get your bachelors through the Air force, i know that the AF college is going to be offering bachelor's programs next year. I'm going to try to put in my "wish list" big cities so that maybe I have more options, can anyone help? maybe give me some advice...I have talked to some military nurses in the army and other services and they told that it is a good choice to have the military pay for it and that is feasable but some other people are telling me to do my bsn before hand. Not sure i really want to start my military training right away rather than waiting 2 years to complete my bsn, after all i'm already getting an age waiver, don't want to loose the opportunity to join by waiting...thanks to all :thankya:
