Will this also keep me from becoming an officer in the military because of that? Can I join the Nurse Corp with 10% VA rating of PTSD? 2018-09-03T18:26:58-04:00 LTJG Private RallyPoint Member 3934750 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have 20% VA disability and going to nursing school. 10% of my disability is PTSD.

You will also need a medical read to clear you for a commission and secret clearance before being accepted for a commission as an Army Nurse. Have you spoken with ROTC? They offer scholarships for nursing students. Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Sep 3 at 2018 7:08 PM 2018-09-03T19:08:48-04:00 2018-09-03T19:08:48-04:00 2018-09-03T18:26:58-04:00
