  1. Navy NCP FY2016 Applicants

    Is it just a good rule of thumb to start your package when your two years from your BSN
  2. Like everyone else that has been answering I can pretty much guarantee a no with the prescription and a maybe with the ADHD. Its a dog eat dog world for commissioning in any branch right now. Not that...
  3. crna loan payment plan after graduation

    Thanks for all the helpful input everyone. Ill be trying to attend the joint service (Army program) once I get moved. Wanted to know what my options were if I couldn't get my military branch to pay...
  4. crna loan payment plan after graduation

    But they are private schools though, wouldn't that counter the fact that im not paying out of state
  5. HPSP for NP

    I didn't read through all the posts but if someone hasn't already mentioned, I believe you can receive special pay for certain degrees and level of education like NP and Anesthetics. If you haven't...
  6. crna loan payment plan after graduation

    What about those of us that are in the out of state tuition cost bracket? I live in Montana and there are no CRNA programs available here. Would it be smarter to get residency in a state like Texas...
  7. Navy Nurse Midwife

    that's great that you have a doctorate degree in music. Have you tried talking with your current command higher ups to find out if you can be commissioned with your current degree? Unless you want to...
  8. NAVY - Can someone help figure this out?

    Just adding my two cents since I was a corpsman and this is sort of a unique situation your presenting. I had no idea that you could be pulled out of the reserves if you were accepted into the NCP....
  9. Getting ready for my 1st drill

    I have no experience in as a commissioned officer but just wanted to say congratulations! Most of us are still trying to get a commission but there are a few here that would know what to expect....
  10. Realistic Chances

    Have you considered the Nurse Candidate Program in the Navy? My health care recruiter informed me two weeks ago that they chose 60 for FY 2013. Better odds than the 5 to 30 slots that are for DA. Only...
  11. Joining the Navy

    The Navy is not taking direct commission right now? Iv had a Navy health care recruiter nearly beg me to go down to the office and sign up for the nurse candidate program. I know that's not direct...
  12. Navy Nurse Corps Help

    Iv been reading these posts for the past few weeks and it looks like the most commonly accepted GPA's have ranged from 2.80 to 4.00. It may be that the military nurses interviewing you liked you or...
  13. I have some questions

    As SoldierNurse said, it wouldn't be wise to get into Military nursing just for the fact they pay for school after your BSN. (and the commission of course) I was enlisted for 5 years in the Navy and I...
  14. Since I have noticed that some people are stating that you cant retake nursing courses to raise GPA, I believe that is true. I retook pre-requisite course work to raise my GPA (medical micro biology,...
  15. ColoradoRN, I am not a current RN in the Air Force. Im prior service Navy and I have been getting material gathered up for the Navy nurse candidate program. As for the grade replacement... yes you can...
  16. I think going back and retaking the classes you received a C in would bump up your GPA. I went back and retook three different classes, raised my original 2.65 GPA to 3.33 over two semesters. I would...
  17. Navy Nurse Deployment Cycles

    That was some of the best info I have heard Donteyeball. Thank you for
  18. Being a navy nurse and prior drug use, crimes.

    Well before my enlistment years ago my recruiter TOLD ME to lie hahahaha. Although that was during the start of OIF and OEF, it may be a different situation now that things are winding down for the...
  19. Navy Nurse Deployment Cycles

    That's not a bad question, people have been asking the same questions over and over again here. It would be nice to see if a current Navy Nurse corps officer can answer that since im curious about...
  20. Being a navy nurse and prior drug use, crimes.

    I wouldn't even mention the marijuana usage to anyone associated with the military, not a recruiter, not anyone if it was only a few times. Like morificeko said, they allowed it at one point but with...
  21. Navy NCP and 41 at graduation...

    And here I was all worried about trying to get a commission when I turn 31 lol. Sorry you all have been worried about the age waiver. I'm sure its tough when you decide to make the career move when...
  22. First application submitted!!!

    Ill be dropping mine off with the nursing department next semester. I don't know what the odds are but im well above the required GPA standards. I would say its for sure but then again I don't know,...
  23. Nursing staff & curriculum being reviewed.

    It was a local newspaper, just wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing
  24. So I just found out today that the University I'm attending for my pre-nursing course work will be having reviews for the nursing program since it has been failing student left and right. This past...
  25. Nursing staff & curriculum being reviewed.

    well what im kind of hoping this does is get the faculty and school to figure out a better teaching method. I JUST transferred to this school the start of this semester with one class remaining for...
