DP. Not sure how I got so much notice. I checked in once a month since clearing and maybe she got sick of seeing my emails. ?

Nice! I’m glad they’ve been super flexible and approving of deferrals

 

[stonemalone99]

Great news! Didn't expect on a holiday to receive an email saying I cleared medical, the last clearance I need. I'm finally fully cleared!

I cleared Tier 2 about two and a half weeks ago. Had to do drug refresh about a week and a half ago so it was a matter of waiting for those results to come back.

Does anybody know if you are allowed to defer the start date of the academy once you are fully cleared?

Should be able to. We’ve seen several cases of start date pushed back for weddings, family illness, etc

To finish school you think?

Appreciate the response.

Yes, they do understand school. They’re not strict with that. They’re super understanding. I deferred mine for a wedding and they told me they know so many that have deferred so they can finish school

Good to know, I'll need to defer until mid May for that exact reason. I've tried to reach out to CG this week and last week but she never got back to me about an estimated class date after being fully cleared

Thanks for the info.

I would have to defer until Spring 2023, which is a pretty long deferment. I will have to check with my HR rep to see if there is a limit as to how long I am able to defer for.

Edit: I am still not fully cleared so I guess it wouldn't be a full year of deferment.

I’m honestly not sure how a deferment that long works. But it wouldn’t hurt to ask. I know they do understand school is a priority. But yeah get cleared first and then ask

 

[GulfBravoPapa]

I highly doubt they'll let you defer a year.
