Union apprenticeship sign-ups near Tucson - 9 weeks in

The training centre near Tucson opened applications for apprenticeships in electrical and welding trades. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. Applications close in 9 weeks. Did anyone go through it?

You earn while you learn, but the first year is tight. Plan your budget carefully.

Visit the training centre in person if you can. Seeing the classrooms helped me decide.
