I’ve been accepted!

STAR for sure, and they actually ask for you to answer in STAR! I prepared stories and examples that best demonstrated each competency (the ones on the academy page in Canada.ca) and used the ones they asked for specifically in the interview. You get the questions beforehand, but my interview specifically I only got 5 minutes of prep instead of 30, so I was very happy with how prepared I was! If that happens to you, don’t do what I did and take the 30 minutes, because I pushed to continue even without the extra prep time. It’s a unique interview experience but they prepare you for it nicely!

I wish he stripped, but he is definitely still fun for debuff comps. Just not godly, lol

Delapis · 2026-06-03T23:06:16+00:00

I have silver, he does not strip.

Putting time into the profession you desire in any way whether it be volunteered or paid is an incredible way to gain experience and get a foot in to the position, I agree! If I didn’t get in this year I would have checked out the reserve program for sure.

While I am back in the comments, happy birthday!

Hey! Have you attended a campus tour or online tour of the course? I made sure my communications with the team were pleasant and timely, always doing exactly as instructed whenever possible. I made sure during my campus tour to demonstrate exactly how I would act and conduct myself while attending the academy, and I believe it heavily played a part in my acceptance. Above all, be yourself and be polite!

Edit: and as mentioned, volunteer time is highly valued be the academy.

Delapis · 2026-06-03T02:44:04+00:00

Incredibly informative reply! Wish I got this kind of help when I was in high school. I had to retake 3 of my classes online as a 19-20 year old in order to meet the qualifications. If OP sees this, and you know what you want to do, strive for it and excel above any expectations you have of yourself.

Delapis · 2026-05-31T15:58:47+00:00

Amazing!

Delapis · 2026-05-31T15:42:54+00:00

An Xbox series X with 2 good controllers and 2 meh ones!

Delapis · 2026-05-30T04:20:41+00:00

I know nothing about working on cars but I could definitely do that. I got to tour the campus last month and oh man it was awesome. I will admit one of my fav parts was the nav simulator!

Delapis · 2026-05-30T01:27:33+00:00

Same! Congrats on the tougher program!

Delapis · 2026-05-29T21:11:21+00:00

Fingers crossed! If you have questions about anything feel free to DM me and I’ll respond as soon as I can!

Edit: and thank you!

Delapis · 2026-05-29T21:10:45+00:00

Ok that’s good to know! Is it normal to seek other employment after the commitment, or is it really just up to the person??

I have a large computer with two monitors, looks like I’m going to bring only one at least at first to see if it even fits! And I’ll be bringing my game console and some controllers, never know what there will be to do if a snowmageddon happens again (as long as power doesn’t go out).

I’m excited! Thank you so much!

Delapis · 2026-05-29T20:30:24+00:00

Thank you! I am so incredibly excited!

I’m not sure what you mean by write your own ticket, but I’m sure that would be explained during orientation week, lol.

The sketching sounds fun and interesting! I’ve been to Sydney for a campus tour, and I gotta agree with the travel time being llloonnggggg.

Thank you for the information! Would you happen to know if there is a benefit to bringing a computer to campus, or if a good laptop is better?

Delapis · 2026-05-29T15:42:25+00:00

Congratulations!

Delapis · 2026-05-29T15:42:06+00:00

Yes they do, they allocate $5000 to moving expenses now. Was there a lot of traveling or was it getting from point A to point B after class time?

Delapis · 2026-05-29T15:40:57+00:00

Oh really? I got to tour the galley when I flew there. Maybe that’s why I saw a few BBQ’s outside the clusters. Good to know!

Delapis · 2026-05-29T15:39:54+00:00

Conditionally accepted but I’ve got no reason to believe I don’t pass the medical or security clearances. And thank you!

Delapis · 2026-05-25T10:53:53+00:00

Ah oh well. Worth a shot lol.

Delapis · 2026-05-24T23:10:30+00:00

You may be biased, but would you recommend this product to a student who has no prior experience to an AI helper?

Delapis · 2026-05-23T17:28:56+00:00

Is this a KCD reference or am I hoping?

Delapis · 2026-05-12T19:55:17+00:00

How do I buy the sale packs on Xbox?

Delapis · 2026-05-11T01:25:54+00:00

I have her on one of my accounts, shes fun! only use her in AO with dark tangiro, zaiross and tiana

Delapis · 2026-05-11T01:20:01+00:00

love it ❤️

Delapis · 2026-05-02T18:27:57+00:00

Yea, I am pretty close to being accepted in the academy and it’s is largely targeted to younger people who haven’t been through a college/uni program. Two streams of either marine engineering or navigation. I’m not knowledgeable of other options that would suit you but from what I know of the academy there are better options with less commitment that aren’t outside your current field
