Many of the threads and posts I read are about applicants stating they used to have asthma when they were kids, blah blah blah, they don't have it anymore and have to jump through hoops to prove they don't. Fair enough. However in my case, I can guarantee any tests done by a respirologist...

Unfortunately I think I need to bow out. I don't think I can justify spending the next 6 months re-schooling to apply, go through the CFAT, interviews, maybe even as far as aircrew selection ultimately to face a high chance of rejection for something out of my control. Frustrating to say the least.

You cannot "lose" ADD/ADHD, you have it your entire life. It's a mental disorder. What happens is as you grow older your mind matures, which enables us to better control the condition.

Honestly, I'm worried I'm wasting my time at this point. Spending the next 4-6 months going back to school with some online courses so I can qualify for CEOTP Pilot program. BUT I have Asthma, and yes I still have it and still take medication for it. It is acute asthma. So I'm able to get a...

Hey folks, I'm 28 and have been mulling over my options for my application. I already applied under ROTP for this fall semester, but going to withdraw it to possibly apply again for a later semester/year. My grades are simply not up to snuff to be competitive for this position. There are...

Hey guys, Not looking for any information here, just need some actual advice. Like so many others, I want to be a Pilot with the RCAF. My only avenues for entry are ROTP or UTPNCM. I am 28 and do not currently meet the academic requirements to apply under ROTP. I could take online courses to...

Master Corporal, I have a question on this. I'm in a similar situation as the OP. 28 years old, but I don't meet the academic requirements. DEP is not an option. I am wondering, in the path from NCM to Officer, would it be best to go through UTPNCM or to apply to ROTP as Mature student? What...

Nobody is asking to get BS'ed. It's called being helpful, and encouragement helps. It's okay to say "It's challenging, competitive, but rewarding - did you check the requirements? You meet them? Okay, what would you like to know?" not "It's really competitive, most people don't make the cut, why...

I feel you, the recruiters at Shep/Yonge are the worst. If you want to go NCM, they're all game and practically SELL the job to you, but if you want to go ROTP you get this deep skepticism and alot of "most people don't make the cut". Not helpful, or motivating.

Yes, thank you for the confirmation. Speaking about the University marks, I did attend 1 year of Uni and about 2 years of college. Neither program was working for me and I dropped out. BUT, in the application I will be required to provide any and all transcripts for universities/college I...

Hello, To start I just want to formally apologize if there are any redundancies in this thread. I've spent about 30 minutes looking for (recent) information on this and not seeing it mentioned, or at least not with the details I am looking for. I'd also like to add I have not had a pleasant...
