For those with hopes of returning full-time...
Does your employer know you're applying?
If admitted, when do you plan on sharing this?
When would you want to leave? (i.e. how much time off do you want before classes commence?)

My company already knows (small boutique ~20 professionals, so word travels fast). It's going to be moderately embarrassing if I don't get in anywhere, especially since they've been recruiting with the assumption that I'll be gone next summer. I've been wondering when other folks plan to leave their jobs as well. I think I'd probably take at least two months to do some backpacking and relax before school starts... life's going to get a lot more complicated if I have $150K in debt to pay off, so might as well enjoy now.
Have you not told your employer yet? How did you manage to get rec letters without sharing this?

That's a great question...
My direct boss knows because he is writing one of my recommendations and so does his boss because they needed to start planning for 2010 staffing. But no one else at the company knows (yet) because I didn't want to jinx it nor did I want people to constantly be asking me OR thinking that I am going to "check out" of work because I'm planning to leave.
As for when I'm leaving, it depends on which school and when orientation/pre-term/pre-orientation/bootcamp etc. starts and whether I'm participating. In addition, it definitely depends because I will have to move, but it depends on how far (might be in the same city I'm in now) and with whom I'll be moving in with. But I'd ideally like to take at least 3 weeks to a month off before I start so I can regroup and move etc. I wish I could do more, but I know I'll need the healthcare coverage & additional income for savings.
