  1. How to improve AF new grad application

    Definitely get both ACLS and PALS, and that NIH Stroke Scale (it's online for free but does take some time). For volunteer hours, look into community programs where you can help and make a difference....
  2. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Well sadly I will not be meeting all of you in January, I've been moved to the October training. I swear in Monday!! It's a small world though, I'm sure I'll run into some of you at some point!! (

  5. Military ***

    You can enter the military in a medical field, get your GI bill then use it for school. Or you can apply for a scholarship/ROTC to go to school THEN commission as a nurse. Or you can just go to...

  10. 2015 USAF NTP

    The NTP is, as Jfratian said, for new nurses. So you would have a bit more training coming in through NTP. Whereas FQ nurses have experience, so yes you still have training and such but not as much of...
  11. Need some advice

    Usafrn my COT date is January 11th. So far all the people going to NTP this year have said they have COT in January. I live near Nashville in TN, been here about 3 years with my
  12. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Well now it's a bit confusing. If we don't get the accession bonus, how are people signing for a bonus?...very
  13. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    Well I've had nothing but positive experiences with my recruiter, he has done everything possible to help me both last year and this year. I really don't see him lying to me about a bonus...anyone...
  14. Need some advice

    Thanks, and you have every right to be frustrated with this process. I think it's odd to cap experience at 3 years credit, when as you said there are people with 10 years and more! One theory is they...
  15. Need some advice

    It does seem unfair, and the recruiter should have known and informed you of it. I had a similar issue arise just yesterday. I was just selected for the NTP program, but apparently the NTP selects no...

  18. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    SamiRose, I put MacDill, FL, Dover, DE, San Antonio, TX, Eglin, FL, and Buckley, CO on my wishlist. I'll most likely get San Antonio but it would be so amazing to get somewhere in

    LOA is letter of acceptance that you sign stating you accept the conditional offering. My recruiter emailed me it to sign and send him back
  20. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    ahhh you have your training date?! I don't yet, or I don't think so. My LOA had Oct 5th on it but my recruiter hasn't told me officially when I'm
  21. 2015 USAF NTP

    It is very competitive no matter who you are, but they seem to like people with prior military service. As long as you make sure your entire packet is top notch, you have a decent chance but don't...
  22. Any Air Force new grad applicants FY2016?

    I just signed and sent back the LOA and a copy of my passport. The LOA had a COT date of Oct 5th but my recruiter didn't tell me when I was going?? Also, anyone hear where they are headed yet?? I'm so...
  23. 2015 USAF NTP

    Sounds like you did a lot, but there is always room for improvement. I had the same mentality last year, assuming I was a shoe in. But I was full of myself, there was so much more I did. One of my...
  24. 2015 USAF NTP

    I applied for the NTP and was selected. I applied last year and was not a select or even alternate. Personally, I had to look at my entire application and figure out how I could improve everything. I...
  25. Insight about Nursing in the AF?

    Just be aware that the AF will not take you with an ADN, it MUST be a BSN if you want to be a nurse and officer. If you want to enlist as a medic you could, but there is NO guarantee you can then...
