FWC September 2019 Closing Date Discussion

[Jcip95]

They have to send them out this week or next. Two weeks before the academy has been the norm in previous forum posts.

[OliverFWC]

Check your emails!!! They're sending final offers today!

[Dallis]

That’s awesome news

[Jones926]

Finally.... Really cutting it close. I'm glad it wasn't postponed because I put in for my vacation the next 2 weeks so I wouldn't lose it. Hopefully they send the details soon. I need to know if we can add our families to the insurance straight off the bat, otherwise I gotta make appointments and get the kids their check ups before training starts.

[Dallis]

Honestly I would go ahead and make your kids appts. New insurance will take a while.

[Dlamd53685]

CHECK YOUR EMAILS!! Got the offer

[OliverFWC]

See everyone March 15th! Let's go!!!

[Highroad84]

Got my final offer too! See everyone March 15th. Congrats to you all!

[Dlamd53685]

Should we create an Academy Class 41 group on what’sapp or something?

[OliverFWC]

Game for that, Facebook, or groupme.

[Jcip95]

See you all in a few weeks!

[Dlamd53685]

Anyone else having issues faxing? No one is answering phones, of course. Not sure if it’s cool to scan and return through email. I ended up mailing my response.

[OliverFWC]

I just marked it up on my phone inserted a signature and sent to Lt. Gaudion with a message saying I would send a paper copy by mail. Sending that out today.

[Dlamd53685]

I ended up doing the same

[Dallis]

Does anyone know about the living situation? Do we share rooms?

[Dlamd53685]

It’s two to a room I believe

[MHenry_FWC]

Congrats everyone, FWC applicant for your pool here that had to drop 2 weeks before the physical due to a torn ACL. Fully rehabbed and already have my app in for this year though! Hoping to see you on the road in a couple years, have a great time at the academy!

[Jones926]

Damn that sucks. Good luck with the next app. Hopefully it doesn't take so long. I partially tore 2 ligaments in both feet about 9 months ago. I did everything to avoid surgery because I wasn't sure when this class would get started. My cardio is shot but I've been able to start running since last week and I'm hoping everything holds together for the Academy.

[OliverFWC]

Dang! I stepped on a nice long nail while fishing today went pretty deep so hoping that heals up before they start running us

[Dallis]

Ouch. Hopefully it won’t bother you too much.

[OliverFWC]

Should be good.

[Dallis]

I took all week off next week to get some time in in the water.

[OliverFWC]

Anyone receive the email regarding the insurance options and retirement benefits yet?

[Highroad84]

Nothing yet

[Dallis]

I have not yet

[Dlamd53685]

Have you guys heard from recruiters within your region about COVID-19 screenings?

[Highroad84]

Last email from the LT said they were rapid testing us when we got to the academy. Said it was necessary before we could stay in the dorms
