Regardless of how they train people to kill Grimm and become Ubermencshes, they are not infinite, do not have infinite space, and do not have an infinite staff. Just like in Real Life, there's only so many people they can let in at a time.

Or better said, there's only so many people they should let in at a time. They could just accept everyone at once, like you say, and wanna know what would happen?

You get entire classrooms so full of students that more than 90% of them have to endure the class standing up, because there aren't enough seats.

And because there's so many people, ''only the ones at the front get to listen to, let alone see, the teacher clearly-enough to understand something. ''Meaning that the ones in the front can listen to the class, and the rest get a "semi-muzzled" education based on what little they were able to hear and see.

And on the teacher's side, it's much harder to control and teach a group that is so big, it practically fills the classroom, than it is to control 1-3 dozen students that don't.

If those are going to be the "protectors of the world", surely they should get the best education they can be given by the Academy? Then, the Academies should not accept everyone who qualifies. Let a portion of those people first, put the rest on a waiting list. It is a terrible idea to compromise the Education just for the sake of having more students at once.
