    I'm currently 15 years old right now and the RMC is where I dream to end up to study. For the past 3 years I've been determined to be a pilot. To be one for the CAF is my ultimate dream and I can't wait to achieve it. I'm dedicated

      Remember that school marks aren't everything. When I got into RMC, my average was 63%, however I served for 6 years in Air Cadets, became a power pilot, and was socially active. So bad marks are not be-all end-all, recruiting officers are looking for a well-rounded individual.

      This shouldn’t immediately disqualify you from applying, as this would be at the discretion of the Medical Officer. You can contact your local recruiting centre and ask to speak with medical staff for further guidance. You can find their contact information here: forces.ca/en/find-a-recruiting-centre/.

      Your application for a paid education program is also an application to become a member of the CAF for the length of your training and specific period of service afterwards. All applicants are required to meet both the general qualifications for the CAF, as well as the academic requirements for your field of study or technical program.
      To qualify for admission to the CAF and a paid education plan, you must:
      Be a Canadian Citizen or permanent resident
      -Meet the minimum medical standard required for CAF enrolment
      -Pass pre-enrolment tests including the Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT), an assessment of aptitudes and suitability for your choice of occupation
      -Be 16 years of age to submit an application (with parent/legal guardian consent if you are under 18)
      -Meet educational requirements of the program (different programs have different entry requirements)

      @@therealmrsteve In my time, you would not get shoulder flashes until you got qualified at least until the phase 3 of your army training. Very few cadets managed to to so before their 4-th year. We respected them. Having no trade, and not at least partially qualified for your trade, screams "showing off". I was an RMC cadet who never went to the RCAC before graduating, and became a crew commander, but not a troop commander. I never whined about having an RCAC cap badge, or having an RCAC flash on my combats. So suck it up buttercups, and wait until you get regimental flashes after Ph.4.
