When I applied, I too was able to choose San Diego,Texas, Arizona and New Mexico, which I did in that order.

It does not appear on Cass. Cass is to show how many steps until you reach TSU (training scheduling unit). Once in TSU, you recieve a phone call for your station assignment and academy date. The pft2 is administered for your safety. If you can't pass the pft2, you may injure yourself at the academy.

Thanks for the help any word on once the BI is done how long it take befor it is reviewed by the office?

I think they are confused. They did ask where we wanted to take the OB and the pft2, and that is the only place one could select a city.

I know. The ONLY time they offered something different was the first NB announcement which you could apply for a specific sector. The SB announcement hasn't changed in quite a while, at least 6 or 7 years.

I thought that when I applied in August of 2010 they gave you the opportunity to select one sector. I don't know for sure if that's correct but for some reason that is what I recall.

I'm on board with your skepticism. I think all of these guys are confused. I am an applicant that applied last July under the "priority" announcement (for those that applied early), and I saw nothing like what they are talking about. What they DID offer us was a PREFERENCE - which was given as a state; not a city. So you could not "apply for San Diego" or "apply with a preference of San Diego". As TheKansan stated, the only time we selected a city at all was for our OB (and initial written test).

Booger. I was going to apply this time and get that GL-9 working for me!

How many people won't read this line:

Due to the high volume of applications being received and processed for the Border Patrol Agent position you may experience a wait of six to nine months before you are contacted.

Looks like it's going to be a long long long wait.
