Thank you sir! After initial Tower you go to your assigned Tower or is there an advanced tower course?

No class after for tower. You'll have to go back for RTF if you go to an up/down.

You could ask, but don't expect them to change. I don't know why you would want to, You got a golden ticket. Centers are where it's at.

Also, track selection has nothing to do with any test scores.

Because the En Route courses tend to be more backlogged, many have been asked in the past if they would like to switch to the Tower course and receive an earlier class date. This question/option has not been posed until all clearances have been received however for the most part. You could send an email to your HR rep towards the beginning of your process, simply throwing it out there and he/she can keep it in mind. Once you have all your clearances, I'd readdress it.

After getting more information on it I like im going to stick with it. anyone know the going rate from TOL to class date? I saw 4 weeks to get the clearance letter but im not worried about that since the GOV already has all that info from my pior service.
