I got the call earlier this afternoon ;D Accepted for MARS at civilian university.  Saw the blinky light on my blackberry and thought it was a reply to a text.  Nope.  Voice mail from CFRC Kingston  :nod:  If you're still waiting, hang in there.  To be honest, I had almost written myself off...

I'm applying from Kingston too.  Though I'm pretty sure the office is actually called CFRC Ottawa Detachment Kingston, so we're probably in the same group as those from Ottawa.  When people out of Ottawa start getting calls, that's when I'll get anxious...

I am also CT'ing from the reserves to ROTP and my offer letter sounded similar to that, though I am not already in university and I am an NCM.  It said "Under the terms of the plan, you will be subsidized for up to 4 years depending on the accreditation that you may receive at Collège Militaire...

No, I am not from Quebec. I had planned on calling my recruiting centre but it's Saturday and I was looking for some input soon because the deadline for a decision is March 26.

I recieved an ROTP Selection Letter email and I am unsure about one paragraph.  It says, "Under the terms of the plan, you will be subsidized for up to 4 years depending on the accreditation that you may receive at Collège Militaire Royal Saint-Jean to obtain a Bachelor of Engineering. You will...

At my interview today I was told the selection boards are 10 March.  I hope thats correct.

I was told that I would not be doing anything during the summer no matter what and would do my BOTP and whatever else during the summer after my first year of university.  I originally thought that it would be this summer but apparently they are doing things differently than they used to.  I'm...

I'm not sure where you are in your ROTP application, but I had to start my CT online at my unit before the recruiting centre would accept my application.  About a week later, I received an email from someone in Ottawa confirming that my CT was "started," and I was also told that the actual...

I will soon be starting my CT and ROTP application (currently in the reserves).  I would have started today but I'm sort of snowed in :(  When I talked to the CFRC about the component transfer he said that I will have to do it online on one of the DIN computers, which is ok, but when I asked how...

One question. You mentioned having reservist pay and staying at "soldat 3."  What exactly does this mean?  I plan on applying to the ROTP to study in the 2011/12 year and will have been a reservist for 2 and a half years(since January '09).  Money isn't the number one issue but I'm just curious...

Do you mean doing the prep-year?  Or just contacting them.  I don't really know what the prep-year is, is it like high-school courses, or introductory university courses, or what?  I'm pretty sure that I would have all the prerequisites after next year if I took the courses I have chosen.  Maybe...

So you all have good arguments, and my question concerning whether taking a fifth year would make a difference in my likelyhood of being accepted was also answered.  Thats also a good idea, I could take all the courses I listed above and then take some other courses during my "victory lap"...

Just because something is hard or a heavy workload doesn't mean it is impossible.  You can consider something difficult but still be up to the challenge.  I thank you for your advice though, I am leaning towards applying in grade 12 but there are just a couple things that would make me consider...

First I'd like to say that I did a search and didn't find an answer to my question. Right now I'm in grade 11 and we just did course selections for next year.  I've wanted to go to RMC for as long as I have been thinking about post-secondary education.  Though, I'm not sure whether I should go...

I didn't get a call, I was supposed to be on the course starting this weekend.  I'm jostled. Maybe tomorrow afternoon I'll get a call, gee whiz.  Well, good luck to you all who are on the course, have fun.

I haven't been sworn in or recieved my kit yet, but I was told that I am "for sure" on the October 17th BMQ course.  I'm joining 31 CER in Waterloo though, and I think the course is out of London.  That course musn't have been very full.  I'm supposed to be getting my kit and being sworn in...

I had my fitness test on Wednesday, and I passed.  I was told then that I will be on the Oct. 17th course and will be contacted soon about getting my kit and starting with the unit.

So things are actually looking kind of good.  I had my medical yesterday and the only thing I need is a letter from my orthodontist, no problem.  I have my fitness test scheduled for next wednesday so as long as that goes well I might be able to get in on the fall BMQ.  I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks for the date, now I know I probably won't be hired in time to get on that course :(.  My medical is on Sep. 17. I don't know how long it takes from a (hopefully) problem free medical to getting a job offer.  I'll just hope for the best.

    Hey everyone, I just finished my interview the other day and have my medical scheduled for the middle of September.  When I went to the Reserve combat engineer regiment in Waterloo with my application the clerk there said that I might be able to get into the fall weekend BMQ if my...
