Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]
- Status
Is anyone that is currently attending or RMC or has graduated recently available/willing to answer questions in regards to RMC? Just figured it'd be easier to communicate with individuals by private messages with the mass of questions I will probably have.

I highly doubt there is, when pilot is the most popular choice of trades for recruits, it makes sense to post ads for pilot to attract additional attention to the CF. People see pilot, get drawn to the application process and quite often end up in a totally different trade.

I agree with this statement and this could quite possibly be an explanation as to why they are advertising different places. I have heard though from CF pilots (and it has been in the news briefly) that they are short in many areas. I would guess that this is due to retirements, and pilots leaving for airlines and other civy gigs. In the meantime I am sure the CF has no trouble getting the applicants, but the training system can't keep up to fill those spots hence why they have tried to hire more foreign pilots from the UK to try and curb this problem.
Does anyone know if they look down on people that will be going into their third year of university next fall? When I applied the recruiter said they don't really accept people in their third or fourth year of university. I wouldn't see why not..less money the cf has to put out and a quicker turn around time for their investment.
I would think it's because your time of service will be proportionally shorter and some of that will be taken by your formation in your chosen trade (The years of subsidized education are counted to determine how many years you have to serve after your studies).
Other than that, going for the TAD, Medical and Interview tomorrow, in order to be merit listed for the March 15 selection. Applying for Arty (1), INT O. (Closed) and INF (3), I hope I get in haha! Going the civvy route, because my marks are apparently too low for RMC.
Good luck to all!

Hey, I'm in my third year this year and just got in this past summer. A bunch of the guys in civ u with me are going into third year. As far as our group's mix of people, I'd say they don't consider that as a factor. If anything it might give you better chance to get to stay at the university you're at since you're settled and there's no point making you restart (I applied going into second year and they said I had to restart at RMC, repplied last year and they let me stay at Queen's)

Cheers,
I got 3 questions of the utmost importance to any CURRENT RMC O.Cdts;
1) How much is removed from your pay monthly for quarters and rations?
2) Are the rations good? Is there always healthy foods to choose from? Is there limitless amounts of ice cream?
3) Are you having a lot of fun at RMC? Would you recommend RMC to others? Are the girls from Queen's all over you guys?
Thanks a lot
Cheers!
