My Timeline

Timelines are sometimes useful to those thinking about Peace Corps or Applicants with RAS (Restless Applicant Syndrome).  I think that my wait time is about the average right now, give or take a couple weeks.  Legal Clearance took an especially long time because of previous employers and such.   Hopefully this is helpful to someone.
