Thank you for the information. That really helped me understand what I need to do and prepare for to get into the CNP. If I have any more question ill be sure to ask you. Thank you again.

Second paragraph, last word should be Navy.

I went to a Navy Recuriter yesterday and they told me alot about what Navy life is and deployment and other great information too, but I am still confused on NCP. Right now I am a college student taking basic classes to get into a BSN program. At the end of this semester I will have over 30 college credits and as of right now a GPA of 3.5. Is it better to go ahead and join the Navy now and get bootcamp over with and than get deployed and start back with finishing my bachelors in nursing, or should I continue with school, graduate and than get into Nursing. The recuriter told me about the 3 classes... O1, O2 and O3 classes if I am correct. What are the differences in those three classes and pay. Also can someone tell me about Navy life, are nurses alot of times more on the ship than on land. As well as if a Navy nurse has a "primary base" but can still be deployed for a certain amount of time. Thank you

Hello, I am a college student taking regular core classes at the moment. For the longest time I have known I wanted to become a nurse. But I am also very service oriented too. I loving traveling to places and doing mission trips in the summer and winter time. So after combining these two together I began looking at the navy and their opportunities. Their website looks really cool talking about all these different places and what's life like as a navy seamen but I have not talked to a navy recruit yet because I know they will just sweet talk about the navy the whole time. I am asking, what it's like being stationed to different places every so often, nursing life, boot camp, whatever else comes to mind about navy and particularly navy nursing please tell me what it is like. Thank you for your help.
