- ENG4U
- 1 of MHF4U, MCF3M or MCR3U
You must have achieved 75% or better in each of the required courses and an overall 75% on the 6 U/M courses. Selection is based on academic performance and extracurricular activities that demonstrate leadership potential.

All applications are pre-screened for suitability at Canadian Forces Recruiting Centres before being sent forward for consideration. Comparisons with the OUAC application process are not practical.
Additional Admission Criteria
Potential candidates for RMC are well-rounded individuals. To evaluate this balance, you are assessed in 2 ways:
- Academic Performance: To ensure you have the proper prerequisites to enter your program of choice at RMC, we assess and review your Grade 10, 11 and 12 marks, with your final year of high school results carrying the most weight. As a general guideline, it is recommended that you do not have any marks below 80% to ensure a competitive file.
- Personal Suitability: We assess your leadership, managerial, administrative, people and interpersonal skills. These skills will have manifested themselves through such activities as holding down a job, mentoring, tutoring, lifeguarding, being a camp counsellor, being a member of a committee at school or in the community, playing sports, involvement in cadets, volunteering, etc.
Before applying to RMC, you must choose a career in the Canadian Armed Forces. To help with choosing a career, or for more information about the CAF, call the Canadian Forces Recruiting Centre (CFRC) at 1-800-856-8488 or or visit the Canadian Armed Forces website.
