ROTP 2011-2012
- Thread starter nairna
- Start date
I just received a call from my recruiter at CFRC Toronto telling me I was accepted into ROTP as an Infantry Officer (my first choice). I'm just finishing my second year at U of T, so I'll be staying there. He also said that I was one of very few applicants selected to attend civilian university, so take that for what you will. But either way I'm elated and best of luck to the rest of you.

Still waiting for my call. I tried phoning them, but I go their answering machine. Left a message requesting more info.
Gimpy: Congratulations on your selection for Infantry Officer. That's my first trade as well!

To my knowledge, and my knowledge might be totally wrong, civvy U officer candidates are the ones who qualified for RMC but there weren't enough spaces at RMC for them, or officer candidates who wanted to go to a civilian university instead and still made the grade for ROTP.

I feel like there are lots of applications that were seemingly strong that are getting declined. There must be some pretty tight competition this year. Hopefully the wait ends pretty soon for those of you still wondering, and I hope that good news heads your way. (I can say that honestly now that I have my offer, I couldn't say it before, because for every offer that was given out was one less slot that I could have occupied, even though that is rather selfish). Good luck though guys.
Have they told anybody they are going to CMR. Because now that I think about it, the recruiter told me I was going to RMC. But didn't specify whether it was RMC Kingston or RMC St. Jean. I assumed when she said RMC, she meant Kingston but I haven't seen any posts about CMR yet so maybe they haven't decided who is going to Kingston or St. Jean yet?
For those still wondering. I think everyone has a chance of making it in. My average marks aren't amazing. Maybe high 70's, Low 80's was my average on the application. And I got accepted as an AEC(my 3rd choice, but the RC said I had more potential in AEC because of my high CFAT score.)

Just some information for those of you who applied for CMR. I spoke to my hubby yesterday who is at BMQ right now and 3 of his 4 section commanders were sent to CMR. They were told that they are taking in more OCdts at CMR this year than they usually do, therefore, more instructors were needed on Campus Fort St-Jean (CMR). Hope this gives a little more hope

He's saying that before he couldn't honestly say he hopes good news heads our way because he wanted to be accepted and for every other offer given was one less possible spot for him. Not that he's accepted he can honestly say "good luck".
