Student Prioritization Plan:

Due to the course being open to students from all over the country and even overseas cadets, there is a good chance that we will have a large number of applicants. Because of this, there will be a prioritization process that will favor cadets who will need the course sooner and those who apply sooner.

    1. Prior RCLS Credit - If a cadet has attended RCLS, COBC, or COS already, they will have lower priority than cadets who have not.

    2. Grade - Because RCLS is a requirement for C/Lt Col, the higher grade a cadet is, the higher the priority of their application. For example, a C/Maj will almost be guaranteed a slot.

    3. Age - Cadets who are older have fewer opportunities to attend an RCLS and will receive higher priority.

    4. Region - While PCR will have higher priority, the above three criteria will take higher precedence

On 1 November, we will slot the first 30 students based on the above criteria.

On 1 December, we will slot the remaining students based on the number of seminar leaders that are hired.

Additional RCLS Information:

The course will start in the morning on Saturday 26 December 2020.
