ROTP

Yes it definately helps if you just do your degree first with no help from the CF.  The thing is though if you apply under ROTP for the pilot occupation you obviously go through the whole recruiting process including all the medicals and air crew selection process in trenton, then if u pass everything, and are accepted under ROTP you are guaranteed a pilot position upon completing you degree either at a civy U or RMC.  During which time they are paying for your degree and you receive a salary and begin your training in the summer months.  By far the best entry program.
