Congrats man! I want to get a good study group together so hopefully everyone in our class, or at least a majority, is down to study up. Have you decided on a place to stay yet?

I am staying at Anatole, mainly just because of how close it is.

Very cool. I was looking into Anatole and Kims, but still haven't decided yet. Also deciding whether or not I should bring my car.

Has anyone heard anything back on their medical in the Great Lakes region??

 

[Tim Gustilo]

Great Lakes Region here, no medical news. I got an email last week saying that they had everything they needed and medical needed 2-4 months. And the grind continues...

Just received FOL for 8/17 enroute... Was originally offered 7/26 and had it pushed back due to a family members wedding on 8/10. Great Lakes Region - completed medical 4/2

Just recieved my FOL this morning! Whoop! I was worried about medical too! July 18th for Enroute basics. I wasnt told I'd cleared medical or asked if that date would work for me. Dont care though just so pumped I'm in! Also I was southwest region.

Congratulations!

 

[Lebowski]

Disregard my recieving a FOL. HR somehow sent it to me instead of it's intended receipt. I was on the road all day and didn't actually take a close look until later. 🙁

Damn! What a cruel trick!

Got my FOL today. 7/26 class date.

 

[Kilo popa]

Correct, I doubt that mistake will cause them a problem though.

I had to do that also. It wasn’t a problem

 

[datdarkness]

Hey all!! Got the FOL today. Email and phone call immediately after. Finally getting real!!

 

[ScoofioTurtle]

Finally got my Not Hired update lol. Guess that means a new bid is coming in a few weeks.

Yep, they changed mine to Not Hired as well. I sure hope they have a bid coming soon so I can try again. I turn 31 on 6/27

I believe the next open bid is at the end of this month. I have seen both 6/25 and 6/27 as the dates. Keep an eye out, hopefully it works out!

Thank you for the heads up!

I see online that it may be June 25th-July 2nd
If that’s the case, what a bummer. I’ll be 30 on the day I apply and 31 by the time the application period closes. (No longer qualify)
But I will certainly apply and see if I can squeeze in!

We’re you “Referred” and never received a TOL? Or, did you receive a TOL and not get through for some other reason?

 

[Lebowski]

Did you apply for the 2014 bid and get denied based on the Biographical Assessment? If so, they should give you an extension. I believe you need a TOL before you age out or before you reach the extension. Either way, sometimes they’ll grant an extension if you’ve been trying with other bids prior to your 31st Birthday. Don’t give Up! I wish you the best!
