Hey, I'm just curious what FELTC is like? Are the dorms somewhat comfortable? (A step up from college dorms?) Is there internet in the dorms? How many hours a day do classes typically consist of? How many days are spent doing physical exercise? What's the food like? Is it possible to have a dorm to yourself or do you have to share with another person/people?

So my Background just got a green check last night so what now? I have all green checks across the board, do I still need a poly or anything else

Congrats!! yayyy!

Great for you! Wow, did you even see your B.I. investigator yet? Or do you already have a CBP clearance? I tested the last week of August, and things seem to be happening fast.

Hey guys, a friend of mine applied a couple of months ago she tested for BPA but for what ever reason she was mistaken and was thinking she had applied for CBP. Can she switch from BPA to CBP? If so how? Are the tests the same? She just received her first email with her first packet from Mhc. Thanks for any help

If she wants to be a CBPO, she needs to apply for that vacancy. A lot of the steps for CBPO and BPA are the same, but the tests are not interchangeable.

Ah ok, thank you for the quick response. I'll let her know that and see what she decides to do. And BTW Congrats to those who have received the call! Good luck!

Right now there are 11 running with one graduating on the 5th... FYI that will not be your actual class number, it will be your session number, the number they give you now is a generic class number dictated by the fiscal year. How often classes graduate depends on when they got here... When you come close to graduating you'll see multiple classes graduating in the same week from the ones that got here recently and then back to 1 class on a certain week.

Congrats to all who are getting a call. Question for those getting the call: For those who applied for and were qualified at the GS-7 level, were you offered a 7 or just a 5?

And, I have my VBT/SI today...wish me luck

16 people showed up for the test. Everyone did the 220 in less than 41 seconds. One person did 24 sit ups in 45 seconds, but he couldn't do one more full one. The 2 females failed the push ups. One could not complete 2 proper push ups. Everyone did the 1.5 in less than 15 min. Good luck to all who are still waiting.
There were 2 people for Buffalo and 1 or 2 for Atlanta who tested in 12/10. All others were SWB except a 08 tester for Detroit.
