Do I have to attend the 52 weeks of 68C MOS? Since I have my bachelors degree, can that time be halved?

Im currently enlisted as a 68c and all the information i received when i enlisted 2 weeks ago and the only way for you to skip AIT is by having a active LPN license. other wise our degree only gives you rank. I was applicable to waive AIT. this is called Acasp program if you need information on it.

Nothing in your bachelors degree changes how you will learn to be an LVN. Your bachelors may make some parts easier depending what it is in, but nothing will substitute the entire course. Only someone like me with a BSN would make a difference and then you become an RN, not an LVN.

And if you still want a regular SVC, look at Navy and USAF also, you can't limit yourself solely to Army, trust me, been there, done that (BTDT), honest, OK?

Are you joining the Army and already trying to cut corners. I’d consider another career.

There is no waiver for cycle entry or exit training. The military’s standards and processes are different than a university would teach. For example, you can have a degree in computer tech and still have to attend AIT. Enjoy the brotherhood. Thank you for your service.

As a 23 yr 68C and now a BSN, unless your Bachelors degree is in nursing, you'll have to attend all 52 weeks. There are specific criterias that have to be met to sit for State Boards...
