"A" School start dates

It is a rotating system where new classes start every couple weeks, but I branchers are assigned to a specific class beginning on a specific date while still in bootcamp, so we know exactly when we will class up as soon as we get orders. Occasionally things will change while students are in hold if a class is over or under booked, but that isn't super common.

The dates are determined by availability of rooms/teaching teams - when the most senior Chinese class graduates, the next class will start. Knowing the date doesn't necessarily help though, because the students assigned to this class will cover a range of bootcamp divisions. It doesn't matter if the class doesn't start for another month if the division before you claimed the last seat.

P.S. Hi, I'm the resident CTI2. And yes, I'm a Chiling.

CTI2!? The last time we talked I think you were still at DLI, has it been that long already!?!?!?!?!


BTW I'm about to finish up out here :D

Well, I graduated in September, picked up 2nd off the March exam. Most of us had Ps, so it came down to test scores and whether or not your degree was on record.

You might have a slightly harder time of it as a Spanling, since your quotas are lower, but picking up off the first test is definitely possible.

Good luck on your DLPT!
