Where to get money for Nursing School? Which schools are good?

We Answered:

The government gives grant money just for the medical field. My brother-in-law is currently getting his whole nursing education paid for and all he has to do is work at a local hospital in need of medical staff for at least two years.

Check out govbenefits.gov for grant info for nursing school.

So there is this kid who has gone to my school for two days now and has worn his ACU both days?

We Answered:

If he is not going to drill as a Guardsman or Reservist, then he shouldn't be wearing it while just going to class.

Keep in mind that some new recruits get paid to wear the uniform in class for 2 weeks after they first enlist in order to be a form of walking promotion. They get paid for this by the Army, but odds are that he would have mentioned this if this was the case.

Often times new recruits, especially DEPers, are so eager to try to show off, that they will do things like wear the uniform around 24/7. It is great to be proud, but many overdo it by wearing it around excessively everywhere.

But, as you asked for, here are the regulations covering the ACU until it gets into AR 670-1.

5. THE ACU WEAR POLICY.

5A. THE NEW ACU IS USED AS A COMBAT UNIFORM DESIGNED TO BE WORN UNDER BODY ARMOR. THE UNIFORM IS PRESCRIBED FOR YEAR-ROUND WEAR FOR ALL SOLDIERS, UNLESS OTHERWISE DIRECTED BY THE COMMANDER. SOLDIERS MAY WEAR THE ACU OFF POST UNLESS PROHIBITED BY THE COMMANDER. THE ACU WILL NOT BE WORN FOR COMMERCIAL TRAVEL UNLESS AUTHORIZED BY AR 670-1, PARAGRAPH 1-10C. THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO POLICY IS FOR SOLDIERS PARTICIPATING IN THE REST AND RECOUPERATION PROGRAM. ANY OTHER EXCEPTION TO POLICY MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF, G-1 FOR APPROVAL. PERSONNEL WILL NOT WEAR THE ACU IN OFF-POST ESTABLISHMENTS THAT PRIMARILY SELL ALCOHOL. IF THE OFF-POST ESTABLISHMENT SELLS ALCOHOL AND FOOD, SOLDIERS MAY NOT WEAR THE ACU IF THEIR ACTIVITIES IN THE ESTABLISHMENT CENTER ON DRINKING ALCOHOL. THE ACU IS NOT NORMALLY CONSIDERED APPROPRIATE FOR SOCIAL OR OFFICIAL FUNCTIONS OFF THE INSTALLATION, SUCH AS MEMORIAL SERVICES, FUNERALS, WEDDINGS, INAUGURALS, PATRIOTIC CEREMONIES, ETC. THE ACU IS ISSUED AS A COMBAT UNIFORM AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR WEAR AS AN ALL-PURPOSE UNIFORM WHEN OTHER UNIFORMS (CLASS A OR B, DRESS, AND MESS UNIFORM) ARE MORE APPROPRIATE.

Here are tons of schools in the "medical field" that accept students from your area code. None of these schools are the community college but great reputable schools in your area. There are tons of other career fields that might interest you...Take a look at all the different ones and read about each career and the difference and what it takes for each. Good luck in your schooling, I hope this helps!
