    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    Sorry if not clear.. they look at your marks and average from grade 10 (onward) Grade 10, 11 and 12.  Son's both advised of average over this time period and that it would be what would be used going forward.

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    For us, we had to supply. They are very busy and with privacy issues etc will want you to get I am sure.  Oh yes... and get the school to put their official seal on it if you can. They want official transcripts as I am sure you can appreciate.

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    Don't assume.. ask them why.  My understanding is that as long as you meet the minimum indicated in the RMC requirements your application moves forward. If you do not have the required courses or it does not, it logically does not. Marks and overall average depends on the program you are...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    For both sons currently at RMC (one in first and one in fourth year)... they asked for mid-term (january) report card. They have to know that you are taking the required courses for what you have indicated as your choice for RMC.  Also will take these marks into consideration, particularly those...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    Son who is currently in first year was informed that it was his marks from grade 10 that was used.  Was actually told the mark that they were suing at that time going forward.  Told that they were looking for strong marks and consistently.  Certainly keep advising them as new marks become...

    Applying from outside Canada (Merged)

    When son gave us the tour, he showed us the buildings that contained married student housing.  I am not sure how it is allotted or requirements to secure.  There seemed to be quite a few.  Talk to the recruiting centre or perhaps best to call RMC directly and discuss if this is a concern...

    Applying from outside Canada (Merged)

    RMC has married student quarters.  Lifestyle many not change significantly, or for certain periods of time not matter what stream one takes. If it is this much of a concern, then give applying a lot of thought.

    Applying from outside Canada (Merged)

    There are those that will constantly try to use the system and all that is potentially offered to secure the maximum for themselves.  There are also those that will to the last degree defend their own actions and choice of education/career etc.  This often to the total disregards of other...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    I as well don't hold out much hope.  You would not even most likely meet the admission requirements that includes (for Ontario and I am sure similar for other Provinces) two grade 12 academic maths, physics etc.  Not sure, and you would not know either, if you met the CFAT requirements for the...

    Obligatory Service in the CAF

    I think that you will find the professor, when he was a student, was part of cuts and offers made many years ago when cost reduction was wanted many years ago.  I have also been told that back in the 60's and 70's Air Canada would buy out for pilots....... that was then this is now (if it even...

    How to get family on board

    As mentioned go to a recruiting centre and talk to them. You might want to have your parents go the second time after you have had a discussion with them.  As I mentioned in my earlier post I have two sons at RMC and could not be more pleased or proud.  Went to see them yesterday (Drove from...

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    We were told similar for last year, that a reduced number of CIVI university and mostly as you note for nursing or others not offered at RMC. Son was accepted to RMC which is what he wanted.  Take a look at last year 2012 ROTP board and you will note very few non-RMC acceptances.  Also a number...

    How to get family on board

    Agree with George W.......... if you can get to RMC  (with them if possible).  If not talk to some of the current cadets and arrange for a tour.    As I stated earlier... have no concerns in regards to two children being there, and their treatment, training and personal growth/achievement in...

    How to get family on board

    I hope that you proceed and are successful particularly with the unfounded and, sorry but I have to say, ignorant comments of your parents.  Having four children, the oldest of which went/go to civilian universities for undergrad and graduate studies (Mt Allison, York,  McMaster and University...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    I am impressed with your comments.  Take a good look at the other subject items in regards to RMC, there is already a lot up there.  I have posted a couple of things as my two sons are currently there,  One in fourth year and a pilot, the other in first year engineering (construction engineer)...

    RMC's National Standing

    I couldn't agree with the earlier comments more.    A graduate will be disciplined, hard working, a leader, able to take and give instructions effectively and efficiently, committed, etc. The work experience in the years following will be hard if not impossible to match in the civilian world.   ...

    16 And Aspiring To Become a Pilot Through the Paid Education Program

    Sounds right.    And the thought is that if a person leaves after 3 or 4 years that they should not have to reimburse (pay back) the training costs incurred .......... and education costs      They should and I believe will go after a significant amount to say the least.  As a taxpayer I...

    16 And Aspiring To Become a Pilot Through the Paid Education Program

    Son signed 13 year contract and it was indicated that the mandatory pilot service was from the date he received his wings. As it could take the two years or more to potentially get the 13 years makes sense.

    16 And Aspiring To Become a Pilot Through the Paid Education Program

    I believe that the 7 years for pilot is following the receipt of your wings (trade qualified). Son signed an I believe 13 year contract going into RMC.  If you are talking about the three years being post graduation and trying to leave shortly after getting your wings they will and should...

    16 And Aspiring To Become a Pilot Through the Paid Education Program

    They paid you and for your training costs that are to say the least a lot of money.  You sign a contract that you will be there for the prescribed time after.......      Yes they may and should make you pay back for the years of flight training or a percentage of at least.  If you decide to...
