"If you apply credit for multiple adventures at once, your Roleplaying Guild character might advance multiple levels. The character’s level cannot exceed the tier range of any Chronicle sheets applied to her."
"You can apply credit from a higher-tier adventure to a 1st-level Roleplaying Guild character. When doing so, reduce the gp reward to 500 gp if the adventure grants 1 XP or 1,398 gp if it grants 3 XP."
So, if I play a bunch of PFS scenarios with 4th level pregens and wait until I've accumulated 12 XP, can I apply them all at once to my 1st level RPG character and level up to 4th level?
I assume I can't apply credit incrementally in XP groups of 3 and move from 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to 4th?

You can only apply credit to a level 1 character. So if you have 12xp from playing level 4 pregen you would:
1. Apply the first 3 xp, gaining 500gp per chronicle until you were level 2
2. The remaining chronicles would be held until you reached level 4
3. Once you played the character up to 12xp the remaining 9xp would land, potentially giving you an extra 3 levels.
4. However, you may not be able to apply some of them as you apply them one at a time in date order. If you applied 6xp, getting you to level 6 and the next was from a 1-5 you could not apply it.
That at least is my understanding.
And you're probably correct.
Here's my reasoning: I have the option to apply credit from multiple adventures at once as long as the "character’s level [doesn't] exceed the tier range of any Chronicle sheets applied...." I have the option to "apply credit from a higher-tier adventure to a 1st-level Roleplaying Guild character."
So it appears I can apply them all at once to a 1st level character as long as I don't "exceed the tier range of any Chronicle sheets applied..." The only caveat being I "do not benefit from any boons until [my] Roleplaying Guild character reaches the minimum level listed on the Chronicle sheet..."
So there is a reduction on the amount of gold per adventure I can credit to a 1st-level character, as well as a restriction on boons, but the only apparent XP restriction if I apply the multiple adventure credits all at once is my character level cannot exceed the tier range of any applied Chronicle sheets...
So if I continue to play pregens for tier 4-5 adventures and apply the credits all at once...
Sorry, it's the way my brain works...
There is no such thing as "all at once".
You apply a Chronicle, check your level, then you apply the next Chronicle, check your level, etc.
You could not apply four, Tier 5-9, 1xp Chronicles to a 0xp character, for example. The fourth would have to be held until 5th level.

On page 7 of the of the PFS Roleplaying Guild Guide:
"If you apply credit for multiple adventures at once, your Roleplaying Guild character might advance multiple levels. The character’s level cannot exceed the tier range of any Chronicle sheets applied to her."
There is an "all at once," but it doesn't apparently work how I thought it might. Which is why I asked my question.
What I take from your response is this: if I played 6 Tier 5-9 Chronicles, I could apply 3 to my 0 XP character, taking me to 2nd level. At 5th level, I could apply the other 3, taking me to 6th level.
That makes sense but is not entirely clear from the Guide.
You have to make a distinction between two different things:
1) Assigning the chronicle. (Guide p. 6) You sit down to play a session and decide which character the pregen will be a stand-in for. Then you play the scenario. After the scenario you'll receive a chronicle which you hold until the character you chose to assign the chronicle to reaches the minimum level; and then you apply it. If the chosen character was still level 1 at the time your play the scenario, you can apply it immediately as a L1 chronicle instead of holding it until its proper level.
2) Applying the chronicle. A chronicle remains held until the character it was assigned to is of minimum sufficient level to receive it. Whenever a character levels up, immediately apply any eligible chronicles in date order of when you received them.
So you could never assign a fourth L1 chronicle to a character, because the previous three chronicles were applied immediately after you got them, and after the third the character leveled to L2. Then the character is no longer eligible to have L1 chronicles assigned to it.

Okay, have to ask this question because it may be pertinent.
Can you 'slow track' pregen chronicles from higher levels given to a L1 for half L1 rewards?

Yes:
Guild Guide 9.1, p. 16 wrote: If the player is playing a non-1st-level pregenerated character, he may choose instead to apply this Chronicle sheet to a 1st-level character by reducing this value to 500 gp (or 250 gp for the slow advancement track) for completing a scenario or 1,398 gp (or 699 gp for the slow advancement track) for completing a module that grants 3 XP.

So theoretically one could have 6 slow-track, or 1 normal track and four slow track, or 2 normal and two slow track as well, right?
You could even have two normal track, one slow track, and then one normal track that pushes you over to 3.5 XP.
Why you would want to do that though...
