@MotownProductions Hello sir. Could you tell me how the process goes for pilots? After 4 years at RMC, are you accepted straight in to the pilot school? Also, does RMC St-Jean have any sport teams, or is it only at Kingston? Thank you.

[MotownProductions]

@DarkForce230 If you are accepted into the pilot trade, then after RMC you will go dircetly into pilot training (whenever you are slotted for a course). RMC St-Jean does have sports team. I remember fencing against St-Jean while at RMC, and I know they have an avid broom ball team. There is a list of other teams on the RMC St-Jean website.

Mr. Morgan, could you please answer this question that I have. Could you please explain to me this prerequisites because I do not understand it. "The first year of a two-year pre-university programme at Quebec College of General and Vocational Education (CEGEP) and will normally be expected to offer 14 credit courses. "

@peerawattuk This is going to get wordy: RMC Kingston takes 4 years to complete. For those applicants that RMC wanted, but did not have quite high enough grades, RMC would offer a preperatory (similar to Quebec CEGEP) year at CMR St. Jean to bring them up to standards. Afew years ago CMR changed in that now you do a preparatory year, and THEN you do your first year of University (still at CMR), afterwich you enter directly into second year of RMC. You can apply either to CMR or directly to RMC.

@MotownProductions Merci Mon LT. Maybe you can help our family.  We have been very disapointed with the lack of information especially the lack of communication from the staff at RMCC. We've attempted dozens of times to speak with staff since before the end of school this summer. Shame. Our son is going to secondary and wished to have a good idea of what courses to choose. The only person we were ever able to speak with was the Warrant at the front gate. A lot of wasted long distance calls

@aknoor22 You can switch to RMC after completing a year at another university. There is a system in place for accepting outside university credits, but you will likely still have to redo some first year classes. You must be a Canadian Citizen to be in the Canadian Forces. If you wish to apply to RMC I reccomend you apply for Citizenship. As you are already a permanent landed immigrant, applying for Citizenship is relatively easy compared to newcommers to Canada.

@MotownProductions

If you would'nt mind I was also wondering if I attended a civilian Univerisity for a year and decided to

switch to the RMC during my second year or part way in my first year of university would I be able to do that.

And also could i enter the RMC without a Canadian Citizenship. (Permanent Residence/Landed Immigrant)

Thanks again
