Thank you Chipper. As far as the background goes, and I've heard other people say it but wanted your opinion (anyone else please chime in here too)... Would you say the main cause for being sent home in such an event would be the cause of a criminal record that the student had not disclosed on their app? It just seems interesting to me that they were sent home for nothing, but I've heard it's been done plenty of times before.

ooops... sorry mama mia forgot to explain about the financing app.
When you make it thru all of the stuff you have to pass (workwell, drugtest, physical, paperwork, security interview) then you go to class. First thing you do in this class is fill out a financing application. You are going to school # Truck Driving Academy. They have courses thruought the US and are based in Sacramento, CA. Central's Truck Driving Academy is tweaked a little in the curriculum to suit their specific needs of course. Basically it costs $3k to go to this school. Central will loan you the money at 0% interest. They want the names in case you go into default etc... so they can call and harass your family and friends about your wherabouts. The instructor did say that they would call each of the references to make sure they are all real. He might have been joking - he's a little hard to read sometimes. -
I was thinking about the transportation options when ariving at schools. I was thinking about hopping on the greyhound bus for the ride down to Riverside/Fontana. I cant get over the fact its probably 6-7 hours drive down from santa maria. So I was willing to drive down that sunday before hand to see the area and figure where's the local walmart. I'm bringing my ice chest and filling up with cheapo foodstuff. So would I be able to leave my truck there at the riverside terminal when I am out with my trainer?

I'm thinking back and remember quite a few of your posts... and you're going to have nothing to worry about. You're going to pass the work-well with flying colors like most people did. If you can answer the security questions (is your recruiter Sarah? i think so... she asks you those questions on the phone. Do you have any felonies? misdemeanors? last time used illegal drug?...) your're going to pass security interview. No problems in the past... your're going to pass the background check. If you can, do the basics for physical. Eyes ok? can you determine between red and green? (Yes, they do check that!) I hope so or you shouldn't be driving in the first place. lolget blood pressure checked. should be less than 140/90 ideally. if over 150/99 see a Dr. It will probably be a little higher day of. Hear a whisper at 5 ft? Can you close your eyes... hold your arms out in front of you and then touch your nose with left hand? That is what the physical basically is. Drug test? yeah.. do drugs and won't pass.
Really man... if you can just go, be relaxed about it... you will pass everything so much easier then you already are going to. You are going to be able to say "Been there... ROCKED that!"Linebacker51 and ssccrab Thank this.
