It is what it is. I am just relieved honestly that I got this email today instead of 2 weeks into my semester and i pass my drop date. My next hurdle is just know the possibility of getting a class date before december vs after. Dont want to drop my classes then they tell me I wont be going to the academy till january. I am set to graduate this semesterYou could end up anywhere outside of Jacksonville, NC and it would be better lol. I would call it burning bridges as long as your job has known that you would be leaving at some time. If they offer you 9/3, take it! You could be with a few other tier 2 sufferers, just tell your job you didn't have a choice and the FAA said take it or leave it. I have seen people already get the terminal class after us though, so we may be full up already.
