Dou You said:Start the process now. Time is of the essence when it comes to ROTP. Get your application/questionnaire to the CFRC as soon as you possibly can so you can start booking the CFAT, Interview, and Medical. You can always bring in updated transcripts/grades to your CFRC as they come. Also, starting early helps if there are any problems with your application process because you will have time to fix it before the ROTP application deadline.
To add, I believe you can change/add to your ROTP questionnaire after you have submitted it (but only up until the application deadline). So get it in now to be safe. It's what I was told last year, and it helped because I had to do update interviews, medicals, etc.

runormal said:Thank you good sir, time to write the essay.
nairna said:Sorry my comprehension of french is lacking lol. I'm assuming it's all good though!
Good luck!
trampbike said:Translation "Only one mistake, it's the first time I see this!" So yeah, all good so far
My interview is scheduled in 4 weeks. I'll make sure to know inside out every aircraft currently used by the CF, all the Wings and every squadrons (where they are, what they do, which aircraft they have), what is the training syllabus etc. Also I'll try to be ready to explain why I want to join and what I think the CF will want of me and why I think I could be a good officer in the CF.
What do you guys expect from the interview?
DBRowan said:I am heading down to my local Recruiting Center tomorrow and am quite nervous. One issue that I am concerned about is that I am only 15. I turn 16 before the required date which is fine, but I was warned that there may be some legal difficulties in getting a medical done before I turn 16 which would mean my application would not be complete until December meaning I would have very little time to make adjustments or amendments to my application such has been advised by previous posters. Does anyone here have any previous experience with such a situation or have any knowledge of it?
nairna said:He turns 16 before the application deadline though so why can't he apply, what's to stop I'm from applying then?

DBRowan said:Thanks for all the advice, the recruiting officer decided to go out out for lunch because it was a quiet day apparently so I didn't find out today however a meeting has been set up for tomorrow. I've got the essay done and the Academic Admissions Questionnaire finished. What other forms are there in addition? Thanks again for the quick response.
