Hi I wanted to reach out to you and check if you heard of any update on the status of Wolford accreditation. I also interviewed on the same date Nov 13, 2017 and was accepted. Unfortunately I received the call that class 2018 was postponed. Several people at work told me that they have heard of this happening to other schools in the past and it may just be for precaution until they get things situated. I was disappointed but however glad this happened now and not after starting. Meanwhile, I have applied for other schools but they don't interview until May. I hope Wolford get their accreditation in order, it would be very unfortunate if not.

Thank you all for the feedbacks. Lately, God has given me few opportunities to help guide me. A couple weeks ago, one of my patient's son just got married and his wife is a pharmacist in the navy. I was told they've been dating for 3 yrs and she's been military for 6 and he is not millitary. So, its somewhat similar situation if i join. I was refershing to know it's possible. In the same week, I had a nursing student I was training and found out her school is paid for by the military. She's also been in the Airforce for 6 years, though she was not married but she had a child during her service. I will be learning more and more each day. I am definetely motivated and cant wait to get my bsn. I will definetly go for it and serve at least 1 term, if its hard family life then I may not stay still retirement but I at least wont be wondering what if....

Hello I actually can't think of any difference between the terms. I graduated from BC at north campus and started in January. One particular reason may be during the nursing orientation, after receiving a brief explanation of the program and the kind of time and dedication is needed, some may opt to deferred their seat till the next term to get prepared. Also, may meanwhile use the time to take the course they would need to take afterwards such as the humanities requirements which would be a lighter load to deal with, if they feel that their lives is not suitable for the nursing program at that particular time. Another reason could be that they may be getting advise from someone and want a particular course or their break to fall at a certain time, as you may know summer classes are more intense due to shorter time frame. However, personally I would not advised such move because it is very common that you may have to drop a course or even remediate which would put you off course with the original class group and sets your plan off. The nursing program is a very tough/fast pace and requires alot of hard work and more, more of your time and you will find yourself neglecting alot of things in your life. To summarize, you will eat/breath you books and need much prayer. But it is possible. I'm a horrible test taker and I failed proccess II and come back to passing the rest of the course and graduated/passed my nclex 1st try. So I believe it can be done. You must come prepare and make the adjustment necessary. Go for it and good luck:up:.

Hello to all, I'm in the process of making a very important decision and would love some feedbacks. I don't mean to share to much before I get to my point but here's a little bit about myself. I am currently an ER nurse for almost 2 years now. My long term goal is to become a navy nurse and I'm looking at it for long term/retirement. I almost joined the military after high school and have been thinking about it since. So I am very sure this is what I want to do with my future. I would love to join my nursing career and the military to fulfill my dreams of serving my country, traveling, and getting great medical experience/training. My questions to all of you, especially those with military experience: How is it being a spouse in the military as a male? I'm currently 28yrs, no children in a long-term relationship. He's 39 and no has no desire to join the service but is willing to support me. My concern about how he would adjust and pursue his own goals. He did very well in construction before the economy crashed. His goals are to pursue real-estate ... own a few apartmentsto rent and also start a new career as an accountant which will take him approx. 4yrs of school. I think the military can benefit both of us or at least wont hinder his goals. Is it crazy to think this can work as married couples in the millitary? Also, giving our age, we would both like to start a family . He's in no rush but I would only want to wait 2-3 yrs. I spoke with a recruiter for the office program and got all the information I need. I know traveling/deployment is part of the military. The traveling is exciting to me and don't thinkit would be a problem for both of us even with kids; giving the fact that your spouse will be able travel to your assignments. I know of a several single people in the millitary but only 1 couple with kids and things are great for them. But there both in the service. However, I have no children at the moment so I would like to hear from those of you with children? I am starting class next month towards my bsn, so I have ayear to research this matter through! Please help and share your inputs. ThanksJ
