There is no guarantee that you will be an e-4 out of a school for being a CTR. Actually, there is no way possible at all. The only way possible to get e-4 out of a school is to be top of your class and get the accelerated advancement program. Even with that, it takes at a minimum 4 months of being at your next command to put on the e-4. And you would have to be an e-3 during the time of graduation, or else they would just promote you from e-1 to e-2, or e-2 to e-3.
The only other possible way is to graduate right before the time to take the third class exam. And even then, you possibly wouldn't be able to take the exam, and then you would also have to wait the two months for exam results to come out for you to be frocked.
