Pretty solid possibilities. When I say drop out, meant more dropping out after successfully completing initiation (in the event your traumatized by seeing a teammate and/or sibling get gored by a Boarbatusk for example). I suppose if you can fail in class, you can also quit.

A bit of headcanon for me is that complete initiation could give you a fast track for advancement in the Atlesian military for Atlas.
