Thank you so much, I appreciate your help! I left him a message this afternoon.

Thank you for the feedback! About enlisting as an E3 or E4, I have a closer friend that's a retired Navy Officer and he said that with my degree I shouldn't enlist in E3 or E4, but as an officer. Is it possible to be a Reserve Officer, go through school, and then enroll in the Nurse Corps as an officer when I graduate?

I'm in Southern California. How do I contact a healthcare recruiter instead of a regular recruiter? I've scoured the Navy website and can only find an enlisting recruiter, or officer recruiter number.

I graduated this last spring with a BS in Nutrition & Exercise Physiology, and now want to pursue a BSN. I'm seriously considering enlisting as an officer in the Navy for several reasons. One being I can't afford to put myself through school a second time, and two I think it would be an amazing opportunity. I've tried to do some research but the whole process is confusing to me and I can't seem to get a recruiter to call me back. Since I already have a Bachelors, but it's not in nursing would the navy send me through nursing school as an officer or enlisted? Do I have to apply to schools and get accepted before enlisting? Or can I be active duty while going through nursing school somehow? Any insight would be sincerely appreciated!
