that's what the senshusei program is a full blown aikido bootcamp. 8-10 hrs 5-6 days a week.and from what i heard most in it are already fairly experienced in aikido (up to and including shodans)

Dude im sorry but for a person to go from whitebelt to blackbelt in only 11 months in any form of Aikido or any other martial art for that matter would mean training for literally 8 hours a day 7 days a week and even then that is still probably not going to be enough to time to have fully mastered all the techniques required for Shodan. Still it is cool to know that it is possible I guess.

Only a warrior chooses pacifism; others are condemned to it.
