I just saw the post about the february boards after I posted mine. Those are the boards he said I could send my stuff too. I'm still trying to get him to schedule my MEP. Do you all think I can get my MEP and interview done by January 4th? I have most of my other paper work in!

Wow this is pretty crappy news for me to read. My recruiter told me on our meeting Oct 21st that the next meeting was in February. I put all kinds of paper work in and have been in touch with him... etc. and Then suddenly he goes MIA and does not respond to my emails and I can't get him to call me back. My friend said its usually not good when they ignore you. I finally got him on his cellular and he acted like he had just been busy. Well, then I get a message from a friend saying that nursing recruitment has been put on hold for FY 2011... and now I am reading your alls messages and that people knew about the boards being cancelled before I met with him! That frustrates me to pieces that he is A) avoiding me and B) couldn't be honest and update me on the board status!!! Is this always so frustrating?

I am currently a BSN student who will graduate in December (2010). I'm in the process of applying for the Air Force, but have had some difficulties. My Recruiter won't get back with me lately and I fear it's because they have pulled a hold on recruitment for FY2011 (that's the rumor). Any advice or insight?

Hey everyone! I hate to intrude on a conversation, but I'm in bit of a turmoil and I wanted to get some insight. I am graduating this December with my BSN and I'm working on my packet for the Air Force Nurse corps. I met with my recruiter finally a month ago and he said I could get my stuff in for the Feb boards. I already have a bulk of my paper work done, license, BLS card, birth cert, ssn, professional evals, all the paper work he had me sign in the office, the questionnaire, and 9 page information application. The only thing I am lacking is my anticipated graduation verification (which I will get this week). He told me when I talked to him last that we would schedule an MEP by December. Only problem is I'm having some difficulty getting a hold of him right now. I emailed him all my scanned documents, the dates I can go to MEP and he never responded. I left messages on his phone, never called back. Finally, I called his cell yesterday and he answered saying he got my stuff and that he would call me today about my physical. Well, I got no phone call. I'm frustrated because I never realized what a long process this was until I started reading your all's posts. Do you think he is ignoring me for a reason? I was told by another AF nurse that she got an email saying they were putting the recruitment pipeline (whatever that means lol) on hold for Fiscal year 2011. Does that mean they have cancelled boards? I already knew they had cut back on boards and the number of applicants they would accept due to the over census last year, but I wondered if this was new news. Does anyone have any insight for me. After I get all my paper work in and my physical what else do I need to make sure my Recruiter does? I'm nervous he won't push my packet if I don't stay on him. Sorry this is so scattered. I'm just nervous there won't be a board anymore (maybe that's why he's avoiding me?) , and if there is still one I won't make it in time. Thank you all!
