Varies for everyone depending on the complexity of your case. Personally, I attended my initial medical in November and first heard back from RMO in February, not being approved until March. It is definitely one of the parts of the process where one may see a major delay. Here is a helpful...

Yes, but you'd still have to do 4 years at RMC. I'm in the same boat, about go into year 2 civ university. If you're done 3 years though, you can't go ROTP anymore and will have to switch your application to DEO.

Yeah, I guess this makes sense. However, the email they sent did say switching trades would give me a "small chance" at being selected for this year, as I am still not on the competition list. They said it is still unlikely i'd be selected within time as i'd need to interview for the new...

True enough. I read your comment as "If you're in year 3 or 4 of a program" the first time around, that's my bad. I appreciate the comments. I've communicated with the recruiter now that I will hold out for potential pilot/IntO slots as I am not interested in a career doing the other...

I have been in touch with a recruiter again since posting this message originally and I've been told the following: If I have done 2 years of Civilian University, I am still eligible for ROTP, but NOT if I have done 3 years. However, I've been told the competition list for my chosen trades will...

Do you know what is keeping you in final processing? Just out of curiosity? Is it a background / security check?

For what it's worth, im in a similar position right now. Will be going into my second year of university in the fall. I was hoping to get picked up for ROTP either this year or next, but it looks like the pilot application process will put me into my third-year university before being...

I was just informed I'll be stuck in final processing until September, when they can book my CFEME. That'll make 6 months in final processing alone. Guess I'll miss selections this year because of this appt. Way she goes I suppose.

Youll most likely be ok regarding medical, as long as there aren't any other restricting health issues. I'm not much more than you ~5'8, 110lbs. I'm sure we will struggle on the odd fitness thing (sandbag drag) probably ? BMQ/BMOQs regimented fitness and meal plans will probably load 30lbs on...

This was a good read for sure. I found the table at the end breaking down exactly what "tasks" go into each step of the process really helpful. Cheers

Hi there, I fear I have hit a bit of a roadblock, or at least another obstacle to navigate regarding the recruiting process. I am going to share my story of where I'm at, and I would appreciate any advice, even if vague. So for some background: I initially opened my application in August 2023...

I've been sitting on Final Processing for a month now.

Congrats, looks like we are roughly on a similar timeline as my initial medical was confirmed March 19. However, I will still need to go to CEFME in Toronto for further medical so I've been sitting on that final processing stage for a few weeks now. Best of luck

Ah, I'm still sitting in Final Processing, unfortunately. My medical stuff set me back a few months. Really hoping to get this all dealt with in the next few weeks here so I can join you all for this upcoming year. Will definitely be bummed being set back a year because I was only a few weeks...

Been almost 6 months since I updated this for my Pilot / IntO application, thought I'd share here. Got set back a few months with my medical stuff. Recruiting Centre: Vancouver (New Westminster) Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: Officer Trade Choice 1: Pilot Trade Choice 2: Intelligence...
