Same questions as above.

Criminal background check. My credit reports are frozen due to ID theft and I was worried they wouldn't approve me that way - so I called and they said no credit check, FWIW (this was first of the year).

Just finished first two weeks of 73 ground school. So far so good. My partner is a 25 yr AA pilot and my instructor also has 25 yrs w AA. I've been in the sim since day two- awesome way to learn to 73. (If a sim is open they will try and put you in there instead of the paper tiger) since I did all my CBTs from home before I came here my day isn't too bad- sim from7-9' class from 9-11 and that's about it... Rest of time is up to you. Workout, study, eat, ect.. The hotel isn't bad- candlewood- everybody is there so lots of company if you want it. Also schedule is 4 on 2 off mostly, everyone flies home. You get off early on day 4 so you really get almost 3 days at home...So far nothing but good things to say about AA!

Thanks for the details fred and bluelion. Great to have the latest info from folks that have recently been through the process and it helps give hope while we play the waiting game.

If you're waiting for a class date, I heard the next class for August isn't until the 15th. Just what I heard.

How long ago did you submit your application?

^^^They don't do phone interviews. You mean video? There's no rhyme or reason as to when they go out or who they go to.
