Alliance & Corporation Recruitment Center

I would like to make a correction to this somewhat.

On our Step 4 you have to click on the link in the page then you're directed to the page where the file is stored. You'll see a file at the top left called "EveUnivercityRet.xml" and this is what you right click on to then save. You'll then be able to import it as further instructed.

Again, there is a known "flaw" when it comes to importing an XML for the Overview and you can reference that at A Note on .xml Export File Requests found on our wiki page for our Overview Guide.

Should you choose to import the offered file on our Applying to EVE University you will still need to double check the import and sort out the Appearances tab within, for the proper set-up and ordering of the Colortags and Backgrounds. And for any Overview preset requiring Ships, you'll want to ensure that the new Expedition Frigate is checked as well (Filters / Types / Ship folder).

Well the wait times are down yet again! You're looking at about a 3 day wait prior to hearing from us. The number of applications per day are up somewhat but hopefully the hard working Personnel Officers can stay on top of this without letting the waiting grow into a longer backlog.

Be sure to read though our wiki page on Applying During Wartime and the links found within. There is a lot of key information there to prepare you for life in the Uni during war.

You can also ensure to minimize the amount of time you have to wait by doing a few simple things. First is to ensure that you go through our Applying to EVE University wiki pages step-by-step. Don't move on from one page to the next until you complete the directions on each. Rushing things won't get you in any quicker. As you're aware, we first review your application and then send you a mailing in game with further instructions including which Interview Queue option to choose. This takes a few days from the time you apply until the time your application is reviewed. Rushing the process will only lead to further delays.

The most common error seems to be not submitting a proper API to us. Please follow the instructions very carefully on Step 3 of our wiki instructions. It seems that many skip over this figuring to do this afterwards. We see many applications without an API provided and when we see that you automatically will receive a lower priority for an interview, and we mail you to correct the missing API. It must be of the proper mask ID and it must be set to "No Expiry." The link we provide is the correct Mask ID pre-filled (if you log into your CCP account first, otherwise you will get a generic API page, so just use the link once logged in) so it's important that you don't change the settings we provide, other than giving the API a name, and checking "No Expiry."

Remember, the application questionnaire is the most important part. Take the time to provide the necessary details and answer the questions as fully as possible.

During some recent "renovations" of the Queue Tool some older information ended up being displayed. Once you submit your questionnaire the window will seem to ask you to choose an interview type and join the queue. This information is obsolete and please don't join the queue until you get the mailing from a PO. We cover each application in the order we receive it.

There is no need to apply to us in game. When you get your interview the PO will instruct you to apply at the time you're successful in your interview. This is a game mechanic and with the number of applications we get we routinely clear out all the open applications in the Corporation > Recruitment UI. If you've applied there prematurely you will end up getting an automated "Rejection" notification in your corp notifications (not your inbox) followed by a mailing in your inbox giving you the information and directions in order to properly apply to us. You may receive this after you've applied properly. As this is only the game mechanic any rejection you receive from that system is not a true rejection (unless this occurs in the interview and you had applied in game). Unfortunately there was some recent "drama" occur as a result of an applicant reacting to the corp notification of their in-game application and they didn't take the time to read the mailing sent out to them by a PO.

In the meantime, hang out with us in our public help channel "E-UNI" in game. You'll find a lot of helpful guests, former members, friends of the Uni, fellow applicants, and the odd Uni member, and of course staff. You can also hang out with us in Mumble on our regular server in the Public Lounge, and of course in any of our public classes, which occur on our Public Mumble server. Please note that there are the two different servers.

As always, we hope to see you in Corp very soon!

Good news! At this point you can expect to have your submitted applications as per the Applying to EVE University instructions reviewed and responded to within 24 hours.

Be sure that you also read through Applying During Wartime as there are some great tips on that page to better prepare yourself for wartime while with EVE University.

We currently have 600 open applications in our queue tool within the last 60 days. What that means is that some people have not bothered to respond to our review and mailing to them for their interview, and for the most part, just those awaiting an interview. You'll find currently there is a longer wait to get an interview since bringing down the backlog of submitted applications for review has more of you waiting to get your interview.

At least it's not like the old days. I had to wait 19 days in the queue for an interview when I joined, and that was below the average wait time

Please see the Message of the Day (MOTD) in our public help and recruitment channel, E-UNI for up-to-date information and handy links.

We hope to see you in Corp very soon!

nothing more to add!

Hi. I've been in EVE-Uni for a few months and have greatly enjoyed my time so far. I've still got a lot to learn, but getting into the social aspect of the game a bit makes it much more rewarding.

The Uni is great for sampling a wide variety of gameplay in a supportive, low-pressure environment, and I'd recommend that every new player considers whether it might be a good fit for them!

Cheers.

I had an awesome time in Eve University. I met a lot of great people who've all taught me a lot about an extremely complicated game.

I've made my decision to move on and make my home in Nullsec but I'll never forget the people and lessons learned. I'd definitely recommend E-Uni to any new Eve player, there's no better place to learn the ropes!!

This is EVE.

Was that trailer cool or was that trailer cool?

Hiyas,

I originally started EVE with a trial back in 2007, but I didn't find it that interesting or addctive. Truth be told, I was so lost in the game, I didn't even finish tutorials. I did however, get helped by some people and made some friends who don't play anymore I guess. Anyhow.. I'm including an eveboard link of my character below, so people can actually see I'm still relatively a newbie.

Now, to my questions. I've joined Gallente Militia but every time I meet a hostile pilot, I get this.. "sugar rush / adrenaline thing" where my hands and arms just start shaking and I ussually die right after. Not very good at PvP, don't even know what role in a pvp battle I'd take - probably the turtle, hide till it's over, then gloat over the dead.

Alltogether I've played for about 3 months in my entire history so I'm unsure if EVE-Uni would even take me in to teach me the ropes. Or generally, some pointers would be appreciated. Looking at the EVE University website, I guess I'll go do some Career agent mission lines.

Have you recently come back to EVE after seeing the This is EVE trailer? Did you search for five minutes to find where they had moved the undock button?

Consider joining EVE University to help you find your feet again. You can come along to our classes, fleets and events and build up your confidence again in what buttons to press and everything that has changed since you last played.

Once you're up to speed we're happy for you to leave at any time either to set out on your own or to join another corp. We have no SP limits so come along and put in an application here: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Applying_to_EVE_University
