My daughter had a squadmate during her doolie year leave after Spring Break. Since he had gone through Recognition but didn't finish his second semester as a doolie, he came back after Christmas the following year as a recognized freshman.

My daughter was not in the top 10%. She was probably top 12% and got a grad school slot. Her major was chemistry so there were only 2 in her major that managed to make top 10%. So the odds of getting a grad slot can be degree dependent.
