I’m in Ontario in ROTP at a civilian university and yes, bills are quite tight on an OCdt salary, but it’s doable.  I live in ‘student housing’ ie. a house rented with 3 roommates and also (by choice) work a part time job.  I know another ROTP student who lived in residence as an RA or ‘don’ to...

Thanks for the quick reply! As much as it would be nice to stay here, Trenton is 1.5hrs away so commuting isn’t quite reasonable.  I guess I will just sit tight and talk to the career manager next year.

Hello all, I'm currently finishing up the third year of my BScN in ROTP (at Trent U. in Peterborough, ON), and I was curious if anyone has a more current list of CPT locations?  The last post about it was in 2015 (Vancouver, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Ottawa, Montreal, Barrie, Fredericton), however I...

I'm trying to get it sorted right now; my recruiter says that because I'm not married I'm not entitled to not pay quarters.. 'I am choosing to maintain my residence while on course' ...  Frustrating as I have a lease therefore it is not exactly a choice; I am unable to end my lease because then...

Thanks, I was hoping something along those lines would be possible.  I know the R&Q total amount for this year is $648.41 for single officers... do you know how much is rations and how much is quarters?

Thanks!  I assumed that it shouldn't be a problem; I contacted Trent today, and they said they couldn't give me any more information until the end of the month.  That said I think it should all work out. On another note; I have a lease in Peterborough that started in May... Does anyone know if...

I'm not sure if anyone can help me; I just received and accepted my offer for ROTP to continue my BScN (Nursing) at Trent University.  Our course selection will occur while I'm on BMOQ, and while I will always have a spot in all of my required courses, electives can be competitive as well as...

Hi all  :D I received my offer for Nursing Officer today!  BMOQ July 4th, then continuing my studies at Trent University!

Jaradok, I'm in a similar situation as you, though I completed my application fully last year.  It just wasn't complete before all of my spots were filled for my trade.  I am currently on the merit list for selections this year and am happy to hear that they are hoping to do early selections...

In regard to RETP I was informed last year that they aren't accepting anyone into that program anymore, not sure if this has changed over the past year, but that's what I've heard.

Hey all! I applied to ROTP for Nursing Officer last year and due to some complications with my medical I wasn't on the merit list until after the spots were already filled :(  Last year the number for NO was 7 and this year is 4, I have already reapplied and completed my update medical and...

Late birthday? I am also in Ontario and have a full G as of last September, and graduated high school last June... That being said I am a January baby. Sorry!

Seems I'm in a very similar situation! I'm hoping to have my forms completed and submitted when the CFRC reopens after holidays! What trade(s) are you applying for?

Has anyone else completed CFAT, and med/int already?

There is a lot of sitting and waiting, while everyone there is processed in the beginning, then the officer has to read the instructions to everyone before you begin, each section of the aptitude test is timed and will automatically close when the time is up, after there is an untimely...
