The welcome letter indicated the COS handbook would be posted on 01 May (nearly 4 weeks ago). I cannot find it - does anyone know when it will be posted? (I've already emailed activity staff.) The welcome letter said a preliminary essay would be due NLT 10 June - that's in 2 weeks, and the topic and information on where to submit it is still not available.
Also, I know in past years a "nominal" food allowance was provided during the course. Assuming the same is true this year, how much additional money would I probably need to bring to cover food?
Well, the essay prompt appeared today! :)
Questions that can best be answered by the COS cadre and Project Officer
Any past COS cadets (or staff) have advice on how much to bring for food?
Yes, I've emailed staff (twice in two weeks) asked on Facebook but haven't heard back (they are probably swamped).
