Hi Daisy 13Ship02Div951--my son is a CTR. 6-28-13 was his PIR and he arrived in Pensacola on the 30th--it took him a little over a week to class up and he will be graduating from A school around October 18--he thinks many of them will be going to ships

navymom3 My SR will be a CTR. I can't remember if she said A school is 3 or 4 months.
After A school will she be land-based or sea-based or could be either? I think my SIL is expecting land-based for my niece. I'm not sure she has considered sea-based.

Daisy it depends on what job your sailor will be doing. And C school is the same as a specialty school. Not everyone gets a C school right out of A school. They can also go to C school at anytime during there career in the Navy. My oldest has been in 7 years and will be doing another c school soon.

Newbie here, how long is A School in Pensacola and what is C school?

photomom my son finished CTN school in Pcola last October and he had a sponsor for his next station. Another mom had told me to tell him to ask for one, I think that is what he did, so maybe suggest to your daughter to ask for one as well.
