Thank you so much Veronica! Your channel is so informative! There's so little information about the MSC path and your content is clear and easy to digest.
Veronica, Thank you so much for your videos. Last year, after watching your videos, I committed to applying to become an MSC Officer. I just found out that I was selected for this year's cohort. Your videos were so helpful and I really appreciate you. Hope you and the boys are all doing great!
I’m so happy I found your videos! I just started my recruiting process as I just graduated with my bachelors in health services administration in May. Do you suggest anything for someone who doesn’t have any actual work experience in healthcare administration field? Do you think it’s still possible to get excepted with just a high GRE or GMAT score? Or will lots of hours of shadowing help make my application look better?
How about a separate or part 2 video on the fitness aspect of applying. Meaning what if a candidate has "everything" on paper interviews well, has civilian health care experience but is overweight for their age /height? The freshman-15 can linger and multiply for years. Or is this something the recruiter tells you to wait to apply until you reach fitness standards?
I’m applying to the Air Force and was given an enlisted recruiter and he said I’m not competitive enough to apply to OTS(after meeting me for 5 min), so he wants me to go enlisted. I’ve also heard that I need a different recruiter specifically for officers if I want to go that route. Do I need to find a different recruiter?
Kristen Woodward yes!!!! You do! Go to the Air Force website or even call that same recruiter and ask for the officer recruiters number without saying who you are or why you are calling. Don’t loose hope, and keep striving towards what you want and speak with the necessary recruiters to work towards your goal, most enlisted recruiters will try to get you to ENLIST. ❤️ goodluck on your journey.
Thank you for input. It's really difficult finding info about MSC. Do they review your transcripts of your degree and do you have recommendations to find out more info regarding commissioning into the MSC?
How long do you have to make a decision after being selected? In case one were to consider waiting for other branches. I know obviously, your decision should be made ASAP and if one were to think about it, it shows hesitation. They need to fill slots quickly in case there are empty slots they need to fill with alternates who are ready to go.
Veronica Luke Thanks for the response! Maybe you can do a video on how that training went for MSC "training", and what to expect. Again, thanks so much! Looking to apply next board. I'm so excited! Just a little nervous about mil to mil life.
Hi Jenny, I would say meet with your SGA and let them know you’re interested and they’ll get you started. Also start shadowing to learn about the different functions!
Thanks for sharing. I'm active duty, but by time I finish my bachelors I will be in for more than 8yr. I just hit 6yrs in May and I have 60 credits left for my bachelors. Did you meet anyone who got a waiver for their time in service. The only other option I have is to get out and then come back in, which I really don't want to do.
I'd say get out, time is irreplaceable, use your GI Bill, or however, you plan to finance school, then apply after you get your bachelors ASAP, money is replaceable.

Chanel M I don't know I can reach out to you for more information about the process please 🙏...
@@gregorynguenang9433 I watched all her videos and then met with a recruiter. Two years later I became a MSC.
Congratulations on your success and thank you for the information!!

Good video. Wonder if there is a way you video can reach those in college/masters when they are trying find a career. Pretty makeup - looks natural.

Yes find a health service recruiter
Thank you for input. It's really difficult finding info about MSC. Do they review your transcripts of your degree and do you have recommendations to find out more info regarding commissioning into the MSC?
Thank you so much for your videos! Did you have a lot of experience working as a medical director before joining? Did you shadow an MSC before?
No problem! I had very minimal 1-2 years of experience. No I did not shadow before, I wish I had!
What function would a Healthcare Facilities Architect/Engineer fall into? The Logistics Category?
There are 11 required courses that determine if your degree is a "qualifying degree" and like she said i think it is found on the portal.

They gave me 3 days for a decision.
I’m personnel and just completed my CCAF. Can I apply for MSC with that or do I need to receive my bachelors first?
What are deployments like for this position?
Hi Veronica. Thanks for making these USAF related videos. Do you know what the acceptance rate is for MSC?
I dont but it is very competitive :)
about 50%
Did you take both the GRE and the GMAT test? Or just one?
GRE!
Do MSC candidates need to take the AFOQT as well or is it just the GRE?
Brandon Berridge MSC doesn’t need to take AFOQT
Hey Veronica! Do you remember which GRE study guides you used?
Which test do you recommend taking? GRE or GMAT.
Why my African friends don’t get job in cruise line
Another question: when you went to HSA in San Antonio, did some people stay off base if that's where they were from? TIA!!
Yes one person and they had A LOT of driving to do. I recommend you stay on base

what ? there is My Summer Car Officer in the Air Force?
Any advise for active duty amn to start the process ? My leadership doesn’t want to share much.

@@VeronicaLuke thank you so much ma’am for replying!
Did you have a Bachelors Degree or Masters? Did you meet any MSCs that had a Bachelors Degree.
bachelors, yes i did!
Veronica Luke great to here. I’m graduating with my bachelors in medical admin in 2021. Did you get any choice when choosing your base?
Are you officially an officer now? How is it now??
Age waiver for prior service as long as I can do 20 years before age 60?
It depends on your career field. Check with your recruiter. Medical professions get a little more leniency.
Veronica Luke I was looking to going into the AF doing the same job you do.
Could civilians commission as an office into MSC with as a reservist?
This literally did not help me at all.

I'd say get out, time is irreplaceable, use your GI Bill, or however, you plan to finance school, then apply after you get your bachelors ASAP, money is replaceable.
You can apply if you’re at least 50% done with your degree
