I mailed my info in and I received my card in about 3 weeks. Yeah, I know people that were turned down because they weren't really in the beauty/entertainment/whatever fields and didn't hand in adequete documentation, but it sounds to me like you did. Yes, you can attend classes, they are quite fun and are held at some MAC freestanding stores and Pro Stores. They usually start at $100, but you get that back in product. They just sent the card to members not too long ago of the list of spring classes but when you become a member it's also listed on the pro website. HTH
