Tammy, Are you in a BSN program yet? I loved the STRAP, but by the time I got commissioned I only reaped the rewards for 5 months!! Is your packet complete? I would be adventitious about your own...
Carolinapooh, May I please ask you a few questions regarding your experiences? I don't know if it was you or someone else, but someone said that they had to go through the boarding process and people...
I just found out some painful news. Apparently I have to go through the whole board process AGAIN. The next board isn't until October. I can't believe this. I've already gone through the board process...
I did my physical in May at the SFRR and it didn't get uploaded into the system until a few wks ago. Once I found out my physical was green I called my training officer and he got my request right in....
Got orders for the November OBLC!!! I put in for my change in status from Reserves to Active...so we'll see how that November class stands...Still excited about things moving forward!!! Graduated last...
Was just reading your post and am a little concerned for you. If the military is really what you want you need to get back into the nursing field even if it is extremely part time. Once you start...
nmosterhaus, Just put in my request for the Nov date today. Tried to put it in at the SFRR in March, but my medical needed to be updated. Do you have orders yet?
Is there anyone out there that joined the STRAP or reserves and at the end of their graduation switched to Active? If so, what process did you have to go through and what was the time it took from...
Is there anyone out there that has an OBLC date for 2010? I've read about the ones that are there now for the March OBLC, but what about the ones later this year? And if you have your OBLC date do you...
There were 2 nurses at MEPS with me that got DQd (disqualified) right out of the gates due to criminal record. Whether they received waivers I'm not sure of because they were completely stopped and...
I was commissioned in Jan and will complete my BSN Jun 22, 2010. I am in the STRAP and was suppose to attend a STRAP orientation in July, but since I'm graduating in Jun they are sending me next week....
mom2three3, I would first say that going through an ADN program and then a BSN program is an added expense. See about just going BSN up front. If you do this then you could see about getting into the...
I am so jealous of you! I meant that I would be graduating from my BSN program and eligible to apply for my BOLC... You are so lucky! How long did it take you to get your BOLC date once you applied?...
Raki, I'm going into the Active Army! I am prior service and sooooo looking forward to returning to my roots. Although I'll be on the other side of things, commissioned, I'm still returning to what I...
Midinphx - CONGRATULATIONS!!! I got commissioned with just my husband and kids and was still bouncing off the walls, so I completely understand how you're feeling!! I'm really excited for you! Not...
I'm just curious at what you mean by joining the rest of us real soon? Are you talking about the Army and if so I would love to pick your brain. If not, I'm sorry for butting in!! I'm just excited...
What name do you go by in our class, because it sounds like you're in the same class!!! My professor is Rand. She NEVER posts and when you ask her a question it is so vague you may as well not even...
LunahRN, I have the DA Form 7654 and had it filled out, but I've not heard that it had to be part of my commissioning packet. I need to look into that! Yes, I have my Capstone course and an economics...
LunahRN, Was just browsing for information regarding BOLC and came across your conversation about the M5 identifier and then realized that you are going to Chamberlain. I also saw that you are in the...
