BMOQ is 15 weeks long for DEO and for those going to civilian universities under ROTP, and it is 11 weeks for those going to RMC.

I think the reason RMC St-Jean starts earlier is so that the school year can start the same time as other CEGEPS in Quebec, but that is just my guess.

Hey bretsky, there used to be a course called IAP (the 9 week course the website is talking about) which was run before the first academic year. Now there is just a 2 week recruit camp before the school year and BMOQ (11 weeks I think) is after the first year. So they just haven't updated the...

Well I decided to call the recruiting centre today. Turns out I didn't make this years cut. Anyway good luck to all of those that made it and those that are still waiting.

Oaktown, I have MARS as my second choice. No it doesn't mean you missed the first round. All of the calls don't come out on the same day, so you could hear sometime in the next couple of weeks. The MEGA is the name of the huge building in St.Jean where you do basic training.

First choice is Intelligence Officer, then MARS Officer, and Logistic Officer RMC Military and Strategic Studies 0 experience

There is no magic number of sports that you have to play. Just play the ones you enjoy and try to get leadership positions on them. I don't think talking weight lifting will get you anywhere!

If I don't get accepted then I will try and get into the reserves to give me more work experience and go to university at the same time. Then I will try and apply again to ROTP and if I don't make it again I will just keep trying. And if all else fails I will try for DEO once I am done my degree.

I know, the time just seams to crawl by, but we are almost there. Hope you did well on your interview Bowen. Now you just have to wait until you find out if you made it or not. Great job PrairieBoy, that is a huge improvement! Good luck on the CFAT and hopefully you don't have to wait long...

Training is every summer as far as I know and it is pretty much the whole summer long. I think you get a couple of weeks of summer vacation, either between courses or before the school year starts. You do the exact same schedule (again as far as I know) as those in ROTP. Keep in mind that if...

You and everyone else! I called the recruiter yesterday to see if anything else needed to be done, but she said no, my file is complete. At least it's only a few months away until we find out if we made it or not.

This is the first time I have heard about letters of recommendation for ROTP. I wonder why some were told that they would be helpful and others weren't.

Well as was said, you apply in your grade 12 year, so yes they look at grade 10 and 11 marks, but they will also look at your grade 12 marks when they become available. When you submit your application (in your grade 12 year) you would give them a transcript of all of the courses that you have...

Like everyone has said, the pilot trade is very competitive, so make sure you have a couple of backup trades. 1. It is not called IAP/BOTC anymore, it is called BMOQ (Basic Military Officer Qualification). And you would do your military training during the summer months after each school year...

skb93, have you tried contacting a recruiting centre and asking them yet? If you haven't, that would be a good idea as I am sure that they will have the answers you are looking for. Anyway good luck with your application to RMC.

Maverick94, you can still be sent to RMC-St.Jean as a senior applicant, you would do your first year of studies there and then you would go to the RMC in Kingston for years 2-4. So basically those that are accepted as senior applicants, get split up between St.Jean and Kingston.

I'm applying for Intelligence, but my second choice is MARS.

I came across ROTP and RMC when I was looking around the Canadian Forces website for my friend who was in the process of going into the reserves. From there I started looking for more information on it and it eventually lead me to this website and the RMC website which ultimately made me decide...

I got a call two days after I handed in my papers and my CFAT, medical, and interview was scheduled for two weeks after. So all very fast for me, anyway good luck Dlew.

Good luck Pudd13, I am sure you will do fine.
