  1. Hello all, You've been so helpful here with my questions over the last month or so, (6 weeks maybe, if even?) I signed my reviewed and re-typed and double-checked application packet on teh 5th as it...
  2. I will indeed cross my fingerss for you too! Good luck!
  3. Hi again, Hmm, well, the Army will only take a Senior BSN student within so many months of graduation and I am at it. Yes though, I did talk to the highest person at the Dept of Nursing at my school,...
  4. Thank you TraumaRUs, Thing is, as much as I want to go if they "will" take me upon graduation that is too far of a stretch for me to hang out until. As a student and (hopefully) new graduate come...
  5. Hello, Wow, its hard to believe that I am an academic year away from graduation! It is definately hard yet I know that is true for all entry to nursing programs, (be them ADN, BSN or MSN!) Just now I...
  6. Thank you again, I will have to wait and see. Lets hope but, I understand that it is a big institution and change takes time. It may be too soon for the Army to recognize MSN entry along with Diploma,...
  7. Hello Beanseye RN, The only information I have is what I've heard and would suspect that most things require a second opinion. When I signed my application packet, since I would be commisionning at...

    Hello, Thank you very much JaxiaKiley! Me too, and thankfully there are possibilities. Although now that I've gone through this initial 'rejection' I pretty much have come to grips that it just may...

    second try, repackaging application

    Hi Beanseye, Thank you for your suggestion and your care. My program is a pre-NCLEX one and they do not grant a BSN, (I asked if they would). The clincals to complete my program and to sit for NCLEX...

    BS or logical?

    Hello, One of my former coworkers challanged the NCLEX-PN due to her years experience working as a certified medical assistant. She challenged and won yet, I thought that it meant by successfully...

    second try, repackaging application

    Hello there again, I don't see it working out. Here is a list of the Army Nurse Corps requirements, please not they only recognize the BSN, ADN and diploma, not MSN entry, I think I am screwed out of...
  12. Hello Romie, The head of the Army Nurse Corps and the Nurse Corps does recognize the degree. Congress does not recognize it for funding purposes as they do for ROTC and Junior/Senior BSN candidates....

    second try, repackaging application

    Thank you guys. I don't know how it will go but, last time I knew the following Monday. We will see if it gets in this Friday again and how long it takes before I hear word. "fingers crossed smiley"...
  14. Hello, Sadly I just found out that yes, that is exactly what that means. After having spent 6+ weeks on my application packet for the Active Duty Army as an Army Nurse Candidate, (usually grandted to...
  15. Thank you for the reply, My recruiter had thought before that I would be in the October OBC so we could've been together, as it is...The Army is not recognizing my MSN entry student status or degree...
  16. Hello, Thing is, upon graduation I will be a MSN/RN without a pre-qualifying bachellors and will be 41 years old. I doubt they will accept me then either, even though some governmental agencies do...

    Which branch is better for nursing?

    Hello, From what I understand you would be able to work as an officer in the Army Rerves when you have your Associates of nursing and then when you earn your BSN could transfer, (not sure of the...
  19. Hello, Yes, this is the program I am hoping to go for. I graduate in June 2007 and will only be in the program for about 8 months. Could you please tell me if you know your base assignment and date...
  20. Hello, No, no no no, there is no extra rank due to having an MSN/RN as an entry level nurse. The only extra rank would be for, I believe, either years of working as a nurse or in getting people to...

    Hello, Possibly they will not just pay off "any" student loans that one may have but, only those directly related to the BSN degree? My MSN entry program costs $42,000 just for the tuition for the 107...
