    WorldTravelingYogi replied to eutawville11's topic in Nursing Career

    WorldTravelingYogi replied to WorldTravelingYogi's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    WorldTravelingYogi replied to WorldTravelingYogi's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    WorldTravelingYogi replied to WorldTravelingYogi's topic in US Territories, Puerto Rico

    Edibie I would go down to the International Relations office and speak to "E" and he should be able to help you. That makes no sense. I got accepted in Jan or Feb. "E" will walk you up to the right...
