[nagdu] guide dog school problem

[via nagdu]

Hi,
I'm going to be doing the excellerated mobility training program at leader 
dogs for the blind.
While I'm waiting for my application to get looked at by Guide Dogs of 
America.
I hope to hear from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Sanders

I'm just a little confused.  Leader isn't in California.  Perhaps you meant 
Guide Dogs of America?  You had mentioned them before.  Have you been 
accepted and given a class date then?

So far as I know you don't really get to pick when exactly you go into 
class.  You tell them when you have available, then they offer you a date 
and you can take it or leave it.  I don't think it's like making 
reservations at a restaurant.
