    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    good luck to all those all applying. I am dropping by mon or tues to withdraw my application. From what I have been told there are less than 10 positions for HCA and my eye being V4 makes me ineligible for all combat trades makes it extremely hard for me to be selected. Not to mention that I...

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    went to CFRC to hand in more docs. asked about my vision and told not eligible for any combat occupations. so basically if i don't make it for HCA this year I'll probably get my eyes tuned up and perhaps become v1 so I can apply for any occupations I want  ::)

    don't think I'm going to make for selections. At least the first 2, but hopefully for top up. Medical okay, submitted my FBI check but they have yet to start my security or contact my references.

    how much does university mark count towards ROTP? High school was fine but university transcript is with WES for evaluation at the moment. Hope my 2.8 doesn't cause me to drop out.  :-[

    just for those who are going for RMC/ ROTP in the future: If you have been living outside of country for a while and there's a chance that you may need pre-sec get the background check as you start the process. Yes it may cost you some money but it's better to be safe than sorry. I was in US...

    It seems they're really pushing through ROTP applications. Last Tuesday I was told not to expect interview/Medical scheduling call for another month but got scheduled for everything a week after CFAT  :D Not enough time to look at job descriptions in detail unfortunately.

    CFAT completed. Apparently did well enough for any career choice even if I decide to change one of my three. Thought I did terrible in verbal but I guess not  ;D Now waiting to schedule interview, medical and for them to proceed with security check. Also apparently friends don't count as...

    Shortage of 8,000 Sailors threatens US Navy Surface Fleet's readiness

    As far as I know MAVNI program is available for NAVY to utilize but not being used for current program. However the army is utilizing all the allocated slots and airforce some. From what I have seen of navy MAVNI they recruited very few people in the initial pilot program.

    just out of curiosity, does anyone know slots for ROTP/RMC this year? Tried asking the recruiter the first time I went in but he didn't tell me. Though did tell me biosci officer is closed, but I went in guessing that it would be closed anyhow and switching that out, thus ending with the career...

    all docs submitted. pre sec form submitted due to foreign implications :facepalm: changed choices to HCA, artillary, armoured. Recruiter was really pushing for one of engineering officers because of my high school math (calc etc) and physics grades. But I haven't done anything along the lines...

    thank you MilitaryMama and dapaterson. Your posts confirm what I have searched on the forum, about other ROTP students joining even during their 3rd year to complete their school subsidized and then serving. I've put in the application (again, because I tried once in 2011 for reserves and did...

    question for everyone that's applying to ROTP. I went to talk to a recruiter few days ago to talk about ROTP. Thing is I'm about half way done with my program (going into 2nd or 3rd yr, transfer from different institution and change of major) and have been recommended CEOTP. From my search it...

    it's actually pretty bad. Last year, where I'm attending school the area holds rather sizable air show by national guard annually and had Thunderbirds come by, and apparently Blue Angels prior and has usually been Blue Angels according to others. This year was to be Blue Angels again but now...

    F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF)

    thank God no one here seems to be reading Toronto Star. Few of you may go insane reading it. Their articles so far have all been against the purchase of the jet and keep saying there's cheaper or more reliable aircraft than F-35 without giving any alternatives. Oh and best part are the...
