I don't know if anyone else has had to go through this type of review process before, but if anyone has an idea as to how long this could take that would be great.

What level of "education" do you have?  Or might you already have a "PEng" dssignation?

 

[EngSteve]

I have an engineering technology diploma with an engineering management degree.

For a good laugh as soon as I hit post my phone rang and I was informed that my education was approved and my interview is now booked for Friday morning.

I think that EM is a relatively new program at the undergrad level and is not usually seen until Post Grad studies, which may have been cause for a secondary review.

Glad to know it worked out in your favour as opposed to be told, sorry you don't qualify.

Good luck!

I don't even have a degree with the word "engineer(ing)" on it and they didn't even flinch when I applied/booked an interview.
I find it odd that they would have had to run a background check on your educational qualifications given your degree.

Regardless, you got through - best of success!

Cheers,

Update!

My LRC called me this morning to check-in and ask for my transcript to be sent in (I hadn't graduated yet when I sent it in; I since have).  Apparently 28 spots are open for MARS in FY 2014.  When I saw they called me, my heart leapt out of my throat!

I think DAA's prediction that MARS selection would be end of February is proving quite accurate..

Are those 28 spots for DEO?

Yes, he's referring to DEO.

Is a physical fitness test apart of the medical? If so, to all you recent folks, what was it like?

Depends on if you're going for regular or reserve. Reserve you have a PT test prior to enrollment to the forces. If regular you will do the Force/PT test at BMQ.  That being said, I've heard that during the medical portion there are a few "physical" aspects to it. Mostly range of motion type things.

 

[SMG III]

When I did my medical, there was no real physical aspect to it.
