The program suits students interested in physics and space-related fields, and it has produced graduates who have gone on to careers in space exploration, research, and the military, including astronauts and officers.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Undergraduate admission is not open enrolment: applicants must join the Canadian Armed Forces, normally through the Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP), applying through the CAF by January 31 of the year of enrolment. Successful candidates enrol as Officer or Naval Cadets, have tuition and essential fees paid by the Department of National Defence, and normally serve at least five years as commissioned officers after graduation.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Royal Military College of Canada has no fixed domestic application deadline: applicants become Officer Cadets through the Canadian Armed Forces at forces.ca, which accepts applications year-round on a rolling basis, though RMC recommends applying as early as September and preferably before January 31, 2027 to be considered in the first round of selections for September 2027 entry. RMC does not publish a general international-student deadline, since its undergraduate seats go to CAF-sponsored Canadian and allied-nation military candidates rather than a conventional international-applicant stream. For the 2027 cycle, admission is effectively rolling through the CAF recruitment process. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
