Anybody can fill out an app and hit submit. It doesn’t mean much. Just my 2 cents.

Otherwise, there will be a ton of people in your class who brought a vehicle and will be happy to lend a ride. You will regret not having your vehicle the first day you are there. The plus side to that is you’ll get to make some new friends by constantly asking for rides to/from the training center, to the grocery store, etc.
It should be noted that the hotels DO have an airport shuttle, so that isn’t an issue.

However, is there a typical method or Facebook group where new hires gather on to meet others in your class? We had something like it during my last initial and it really helped figure out cars and such.

It takes minimal planning and effort to attend a half day meet & greet. Extremely low risk/high reward. And you’re right, lots of low time pilots get the invite after attending and skip the line a bit, as they should. My new hire class had more than a handful of pilots with less than 2,000 hours total time.
