AM incline after internship with one semester left?

AM incline after internship with one semester left?
I recently finished an Area Manager internship with Amazon and was wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation with an AM incline/transition before officially graduating.
My internship went really well. I presented my project to the senior leadership team, exceeded the baselines I set during the pilot, and the tool I created is supposed to be refined by Process Engineers and potentially rolled out across the network if everything goes well. Based on my feedback, my manager will also most likely recommend me for an incline as part of my intern evaluation.

I currently have three AM applications that have been Under Consideration for about three weeks, but I still have one semester of college left. I also have 2+ years of blue-badge experience and have spent most of my time taking on PA-type roles and responsibilities while remaining T1 because it worked better with my school schedule.
Ideally, I’d like to transition directly into an AM position instead of going back to another site as a T1. It’s not only about getting the management experience. Financially, staying T1 means I usually have to work around six days a week to cover school and my other expenses while still balancing classes. As an AM, even if I were working four 12s or occasionally five 12s, I’d have a much more consistent schedule and more actual days available for school.

Has anyone gone from T1 → AM after an AM internship with an incline, especially with one semester still remaining? Curious what your experience with the process and timeline was like.
