 +===== History =====
 +Constructed in [[timeline:ye_20]], Educational Facility 2 was originally meant to provide for the educational needs of the children of [[corp:pnugen_corporation]] employees who considered their local schools inadequate. The school gained fame for its “one stop” service, accepting students at around age 6 or older, and graduating them as full-fledged professionals when they reach around 22 years of age. Only the children of PNUgen employees were accepted, which made for a student body that was well-off financially and highly competitive in academics.
 +
 +In [[timeline:ye_22]], the Star Army of Yamatai also built an adjacent site as an officer school for training officers for the military.
 +
 +Although the Star Army of Yamatai assumed control of [[stararmy:bases:educational_facility_1|Educational Facility 1]] when its construction was complete, EF2 remained in PNUgen’s control when it was built. (The two facilities were built simultaneously.) It was not until [[timeline:ye_29]], when the Star Army of Yamatai raided PNUgen HQ, that the Star Army of Yamatai took over the campus at Tania and opened the doors of EF2 to bright, high performance students from all over Yamatai. Those who show promise in the biological disciplines are especially likely to gain entrance.
 +
 +In [[timeline:ye_38]], EF2 merged with the Star Army Academy and they now operate as one school.

 +===== Making the Cut ====
 +Students who do not meet their credit requirements or are not in the top 80% of their class at the end of each year are automatically expelled. So, for example, if 1000 students start, a maximum of 800 will become second-year students, 640 will make it to become third year students, 512 will make it to the fourth year, and a maximum of 410 will actually graduate. To fail a class typically means washing out, especially in the last two years. Students who do not make it will become E4s (Joto Hei) in the Star Army.
