It's difficult finding people who started from AFROTC and went all the way to CRNA so this video is a goldmine for me. I'm currently at BAMC and I should be dropping my Critical Care package pretty soon. Hopefully for ICU I can get to Walter Reed or Nellis. I'll miss the trauma from BAMC though. Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this video. I have been contemplating which route to take. I went through the process of applying to the air force once, but life happened and had to take a step back. I am now in nursing school going to graduate and I wanted to know which would be a better thought direct sessions or working as a nurse in the Air Force first. Have you found someone who was a direct session to crna?
18 & fresh out of hs. i finished a little early since i got my credits faster but im still class of 2024. i want to become a crna as well & join the af. i have no idea where to start though lmao or what steps to take first. like do i get my bsn first and then apply for this af crna program? or do i join the af first to get my gi bill after active duty & then use that to pay for schooling to get my bsn & if i do it that way, will i be able to still apply to this crna program? so many questions & im afraid to go to a recruiter bc they’ll give me false promises 😂
There are a lot of ways to skin this cat. First ask your self where you are financially and can you afford going to school now versus later. Your first step is getting a BSN. You can always enroll at a state school and have them pay for school by doing AFROTC. From there you will commission and you will need to do 2 years medsurg then icu then CRNA (youll need to get your ccrn in the process with other science prereqs/GRE). Some people do civilian route first as well and get icu then commission then go from there. Ask your self first what your priorities are and go from there.
Hey, I’m in the process of getting my Hawaii nursing license and I’ve been watching your videos. I am confused about the PVL website. Could I ask you some questions about this process?
Hey, Genesis. Would it take long to get that kind of position within the AF? Is there a waistlist for that kind of job. I’m an RN with 3 years of ICU experience.
as of now, yes. unlike the army, we don't have a school of choice program yet. that's how the air force keeps it though, i don't think they'll go to that model because they're not hurting for CRNAs unlike the army.

have you been able to navigate the website?
Can a civilian apply through direct commissioning? I see on the USUHS website that you must be active duty in order to apply? Thanks :)
yes, we mention it in the video. It's a 2 part application process.
Hey, there! Any advice for someone who wants to do flight nursing in the AF?
2 years exp, us degree, and FNCRN

@ashkat79 just seeing your comment. i apologize. if you work hard toward it i wanna say a 2-3 year time frame.
Is USU the only school Air Force recognizes for CRNA education?
as of now, yes. unlike the army, we don't have a school of choice program yet. that's how the air force keeps it though, i don't think they'll go to that model because they're not hurting for CRNAs unlike the army.
is philippine nursing degree not allowed to apply for AF?
not allowed. you need an American degree from ccne
Where are the munchies 😂
