Tomahawk Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Anyone else applying to Boise / get an email with a request to fill out a separate application from the one sent before the 10/31 deadline? $50 fee to fill it out and apply again seems a bit strange.

I saw that email but filled mine out just fine without seeing anything about a $50 fee. I just input my info and submitted. It was just that Google form right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brabus Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 No way that $50 email is legit, and if it actually was, then whoever running this board at Boise is a giant douche. I highly doubt that’s the case. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they must've updated the Google form taking out the fee question after sending out the 2nd email explaining that the $50 was not required and that paying would provide "app review services." There was initially a question basically saying "Are you willing to pay $50 to be considered for this UPT slot?" with answers of "yes" or "No I won't pay $50 and do not want to be considered" and a Venmo code to scan to pay it...

Seriously? Sounds like they fixed the problem, but holy shit I can’t believe the total lack of SA on ver 1 of email if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
