Thanks for the reply. I already started my application and I easily accessed the questions, so now I can work on them before submiting my application

Acceptance...?

Has anyone submitted their application (yesterday) and havent heard anything by way of acceptance/rejection yet?

I'm starting to get a bit nervous that I've heard nothing yet (other that the acknowledgement for submission)

It will take weeks to get anything other than received message.

I wouldn't be surprised if you hear after xmas unless your submission is particularly poor or you don't have the required qualifications or requirements.

Seemingly some have already received invitations to assessments mad jock. However, it seems to only be those who applied to OAA so far? Anyone from CTC or FTE get an invitation yet?

Not yet G-FORC3. Application submitted day before yesterday, I've only had the automated response so far.

That seems to be the case. I applied to OAA yesterday and have been given my assessment date today.

It would be safe to assume then that BA have set a bar and if your basic qualifications put you above that bar, you're in and if they don't, your not.

One would also assume this will be far higher than the minimum requirements advertised.

At this stage it won't be more than a simple yes or no based on your Degree, A Levels and GCSEs.

Is the £250 a one off, or if you progress further will you be required to pay for further stages?

LadyL- The £250 is a one-off assessment fee. That includes all fees for the assessment at the FTO. If you are lucky enough to progress to BA head office stage, then you would do so at no further cost.

Trouble inputting my degree

Hi,

Has anybody else had the problem of inputting their degree in the qualifications section?

I only have the option to put in my degree, result and type, yet it is saying I cannot save it and reads as follows...

Please enter the month and year the qualification was awarded or is expected to be awarded.

Any help would be much appreciated,

Cheers.

I am not applying... Just work on the other side of the FD door...

Best of luck to you all... Let me know how you take your tea and coffee if you get a yes!

Andy4. If you'd taken the time to read back over 3 whole pages, you'd have found the answer.

However, I'm feeling kind. Try using different internet browsers such as chrome, firefox etc. People have also had luck with using an iPad or iPhone.

Acceptance notification during weekend?

This is my first time applying for the FPP. I've applied through OAA who seem to be giving quick responses to applicants. I submitted my form yesterday and I'm wondering if I can expect a response today but considering it's the weekend I should probably be patient and not expect a response till next week?! If anyone hears from OAA today I would be grateful if you let me know! Thanks!

I agree fully with G-F0RC3, Smokey Lomcevak & Runway_37 about taking your time.

Absolutely no point being the "first" one to submit your application - there will be no brownie points given. What matters is the fact that you have put together a carefully considered and thoughtful response to the questions. I fail to see how those that submitted within hours of the opening could have done that given that this years' questions are different. I still look at my application every day although it is ready, and I am still seeing things I want to change slightly.

Best advice would be don't rush

In the maths test at the selection process, does it go as far as polynomials and algebraic fractions or is it simple maths as far as flying is concerned?

I have had the same problem. Use the TAB key to move across the inputs, and once you tab across from the 'Other' box the dates miraculously appear!

So apparently there are some 'functionality tests' if you're over 6ft2. Anyone know what these are? I'm 6ft4
