Good to hear you have been active this summer Joani and Shock! I myself have been accumulating volunteer hours, training (running, weights ext.) Reading as much as I can to understand the position, Canada and her military, and Canada in the world stage. This fall I will continue volunteering...

Its almost September everyone! That means ROTP will be opening up soon! Anyone want to share anything they did over the summer to prepare for the application process? What trades they will be applying too? Anything you want to share! Looking forward to hearing from everyone :)

Welcome to the forum! The contract would only be signed after you have been accepted and offered a position in the CF in ROTP as an officer cadet. From there you would have a maximum of 1 year from that date to withdraw, though it is very serious and a heavy process. If you decided against...

Hey Tony, this is an excellent thread to start, you could also add this question in the ROTP 2011-2012 thread as well. Some of future applicants have already started to post what they are doing. Check there, you may get some answers. Good luck!

It would definetly be best to speak to a recruiter, but I'm fairly sure that ROTP applies only to full time university students. Otherwise it would take a much longer time to graduate and that is not in the CFs best interests.

I believe it is reduced by a certain amount, depending on what trade it could be 1 or 2 years. I will be entering second year university as well.

I don't think you have to be worried if you older! On the forces.ca website under officer training there is a video and one of the officer cadets is 40! So if she can I have complete confidence that you can too

Sounds good Joani, everything sounds positive to me. Im in a similar area as well, just working at making myself as competitive as possible. My mother had laser eye correction, it's definitely worth it. This forum is filled with great information, it has definitely helped me considerably. Hope...

Hey everyone, Now that it is summer time and all the 2010-2011 ROTPs have completed there application proccess for the year I was just seeing how everyone interested in applying starting this September 2010 is doing, and if/what they are doing to prepare. Hope to hear from you all, nairna

Im having the same problem as well! Both in Chrome and IE 8, it is very annoying! I have reset my modem, my router, cleared my cache, all I could think of and it still is not working. I do not know what is wrong!? :(

I am nervous as well! But like you said while we wait it is best to build our competitiveness so we look much better. The Cadet SN is strange as on the application papers there is a spot for a Cadet SN, you should check that out. Forces.ca has the PDF files of the applications. Take a look...

Hey everyone! Now that the deadline has passed for the 2010-2011 year I thought I would make a 2011-2012 thread for those applying starting September 2010. Tell us if you're going Civy U or RMC, what trade(s), and any questions or concerns you may have. As I am first I will start lol  :P I...

Right now I am reading Fifteen Days by Christie Blatchford, very good book, very well thought out and gives an amazing look into the many aspects of the CF, whether it be in the front lines or the homefront, highly recommend it!

My previous employer had an option for a second account to be deposited by either amount or percentage, I thought it would be great to know if the CF did that as well since PC has a much better interest rate for savings I like having some money go in there, if not I guess I will have to do it...

Hey everyone, Just had a question for anyone that could answer this. I have looked around and found nothing on the topic so I thought I would make a post. My question is, can your salary be split and deposited into different bank accounts automaticly on the 15th and last day of each month? Does...

Oh ok, I see, thank you very much for your information everyone, it was much appreciated. Anthony

Thank you for your info, I do understand that a med tech is a med tech, my question tho is,  does that lead, down the road, a medic in a combat unit? or does one join infantry and specialize in field medical aid? There is so little information on this topic. That article in my last post refers...

Hey everyone, I have a question that I simply can not find anywhere else. I have not spoken to a recruiter as this question is more for my friends benifit than mine, though I enjoy learning new things. I have submited my application for Infantry Officer, and my friend who wants to join the CF as...
