Not entirely sure how I missed this one until now with all the time I spend there but, while I was browsing the CF recruiting website earlier I stumbled upon their FAQ page. Linked here, http://www.forces.ca/en/page/faq-101#joining-0 Reading through the page they seem to have covered almost...

You should do exactly what they told you to do. Make sure that you have all the forms completely filled out and have them on hand ready to give to the recruiter when you arrive for your CFAT. When you arrive there you will write the test along with spending some time completing administrative...

IMO part of the problem is the lack of knowledge in young people about how to go about joining the CAF. Since a young age I have been involved in Cadets and dealt with reservists and recruiters on a fairly regular basis but this past year as my friends and I began discussing our plans for after...

That makes sense, thanks for clearing that up for me

I am not in any way an expert on the subject however before I realized that there was no way of me ever going to med school I did do some research into the subject. From my understanding, when you are accepted into your graduate degree you can apply to the ROTP for a subsidized education if you...

Since as far as I am aware none of us are recruiting officers we cannot tell you exactly what your chances are, it all depends on your CFAT results how you do in your interview, what trades you are applying for, how many openings there are for that trade, and many other factors that we are not...

I just went in for my interview about a week ago and while I was there I began talking to the Sgt. running the front desk, one of the things that he mentioned is that for the upcoming academic year, unless your program is not offered at RMC, if you are accepted into the ROTP you will be...

When I did my application I got an email that sounds similar to yours. At the bottom of the page was a link that took me to a separate website where I got the applications (.pdf files) and submitted them using my applicant number.

I submitted my application on Sept. 4 of this year and am only now going in for my interview and medical tests. As well I have been told that I likely won't get a 'yes' or 'no' until April. Hope this helps

Before I say anything, I am NOT a recruiter and therefore cannot say anything definitively. From what I understand they are using this essay to determine why they should pay for you and not someone else. They do not make any gains off someone who is in it just for free school; they want someone...

Hi, I just submitted those forms about a week ago. When I wrote mine I talked about why I wanted to be an officer and why I wanted to join the CF. As well, you mentioned that you are currently attending university, have you thought about asking a friend (preferably an English major), a...

From my understanding the only restriction is that they cannot be fixed blade knives. The CO from your corp. may have a different opinion on the matter however. As far as I am aware there is no specific regulation on the carrying of knives. References: Cadet Sgt. Hastings and Prince Edward  Regiment

Hi, I sent in my RMC questionnaire about a week ago and am currently waiting for a call to book my tests. I was just wondering if anyone had already started their tests and, if so, how long can I expect to wait?

Honestly, like any other university your chances are determined by whoever else is applying this year. That said, try to improve all areas of your application: try to get the best grades possible, get in better shape, maybe look at learning some French, ect. The better you are in everything, the...

Hi, just thought I would give this topic some new life as it has been stagnant for a while now. I am currently applying to RMC for the following trades. 1: Engineer Officer 2: Infantry Officer 3: Armour Officer I would be glad to hear from others in a similar situation but am currently pretty...

I'm afraid I can't offer any help with the academics side (I'm from Ontario), however when I spoke to the RC they told me to apply online. The process was fairly simple and you do just specify ROTP on the application. I also needed to mail them copies of my birth certificate and transcripts.

Thanks for the info. Not as bad as I thought it would be, but still I will want to avoid that.

Hi, I am applying to RMC right now and while I am in decent shape and have already started training I am worried I might not pass the RMC fitness test. Does anyone know what would happen if I pass the EXPRESS test but not RMC's test?

They look at your 6 most recent completed university credits. Meaning your grade 11 courses. But, you also update them on your current marks as you receive them.

Thanks I think I will try to get five anyway, just in case. Then I can always pick and choose.
