It definitely seems that getting the off-the-street interview will get you to United much more quickly.
Thanks again for the information.
Not sure how the rest of the classes look, but our class had about 25% of the students from the CPP/Aviate program.
While the CPP and Aviate programs are separate, they put the 2 of them together for the new hire class pool and mentor programs. The CPP/Aviate pool will be dried up soon for qualified candidates. Most of those left in the pool do not have the hour or time requirements fulfilled and they will have to hire the majority off the street anyways.
