EaW Graduation Requirements

Once a student completes the necessary graduation requirements, s/he needs to contact the EaW UG Instructor and ask for the basic graduation, or s/he can try to complete the optional graduation requirements as well, and contact the EaW UG Instructor and ask for the full graduation.
After a student's graduation, the RID CO will be informed about the student's graduation. The RID CO will then assign the graduated student to a position in the RID. This may take a few days.

Necessary Requirements

1) Xfire - Download (for free) Xfire at www.xfire.com and add DaLe to your friends list. His Xfire ID is rsdale . Xfire is an Instant Message programe that is focused on online gamers. It will come very in handy to get matches arranged. Xfire IDs of other RID members can be found in the appropriate thread on the RID forum.

2) Post on RS forums - Post your Xfire ID in the appropriate thread of the RID section of the RS forums. You need to create an account on the forums to be able to do that. The appropriate thread can be found here: http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1865

3) ITOD Mission - Play the current ITOD mission and send a screenshot of the results screen to the EaW UG Instructor. Current and older ITOD missions can be downloaded in the RS ITOD section: http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/itod/ .
A good programe to take screenshots in game is Fraps. You can download it (for free) at www.fraps.com .

4) Rank - In order to be able to graduate a student needs to have obtained at least the rank of a LJG through the Beginner's Path.

Optional Requirements

5) Ecliptical Realms - To be able to participate in inter-club events you will need to sign up for the RS on Ecliptical Realms (ER). Go to www.eclipticalrealms.com and create an account. After you have your account click on 'Join Club' on the left bar and signup for Empire at War and for the Rebel Squadrons. After your request has been approved you will be able to fight side by side with other RS members in events hosted by ER.

Note: The name you will be using on Ecliptical Realms needs to be the same as your in-game name. And you will have to use an in-game name with the RS tag (eg. RS_DaLe).

6) MP match with RID member - Play at least one multiplayer match with another RID member. To arrange a match use Xfire or go to the IRC channel #RID. Take a screenshot during that match and send the EaW UG Instructor that screenshot.
