Today marks one year of being in TSU!!!!!

It seems like Texas land borders would always need people; are you waiting for Dallas or Houston airport or something? Hopefully 2010 will bring good things for you. ¡Buena suerte!

I thought I was facing the same dilema almost a year ago. Explain your situation to your professors on the first day of class and ask if they'd be willing to give you an "I" grade for the class. It allows you to come back at some future date to finish the class from where you left it. If a professor isn't willing to do that (which is highly unlikely) drop their class for one that will. This process is DEFINITELY NOT worth postponing your education for. Besides, even if they did call you and you didn't want to withdraw, you can always ask TSU for an extention.

Yea im taking night classes so if evertying works out well. I'll get the call mid semester and i get to finish school before i head over to FLETC.
(How long is it from the date you get hired and go to FLETC?)

No way am i asking TSU for extention wait to long already.
Maybe can defer my FLETC date if anything if/when i get hired.
Its all Speculation now anyway.. Im just hoping to get lucky.

EOD to FLETC seemed to range from 2 weeks to a month and a half in the past, but as we've all witnessed, things have changed. I would venture a guess that the wait would be longer now. I had a friend already go to FLETC, but he developed pneumonia and was sent home to recover and redo the academy at a later date. One would think he would be on the fast track for a date. He was sent home in mid September and is still waiting for a date. I think you have plenty of time to finish winter term. You are probably the only one on this board hoping to slow the process down Good luck.

I doubt it.

There's very little meaningful work as it is for a new hire to do during pre-academy. From the vantage of a current officer, a longer pre-academy just means having to "babysit" a new person for a longer period of time. It would serve no useful purpose I can think of to stretch pre-academy past 4 weeks or so.

Good day all, add me to the tsu list LAX/LB 6/23/09. Spoke with another TSO and he stated he just got picked up for ICE and is going to FLETC in December. I told him I was in the process for CBP and have been waiting close to 6 months for a academy date and their are some folks around the country who have been waiting for a yr plus. He said from what I hear CBP takes a long time, because there are several people who have been waiting for months upon months to get hired and we conversed that it could be about funding. Also I spoke to several CBP officers at LAX and they stated in January calls should start picking up, because that is when they get funded.

Well, if this is true then that's good news for LAX/LB people!! This does include MEEEE!!! WOOOOO! That would make a good birthday gift to me in January!!!
