RMC deadlines, September 2027 entry
OUAC closes January 15, 2027 for everyone. What Royal Military College of Canada says about offers, deferrals and deposits, and the OUAC dates that apply to everyone.
Every date here says where it came from. Dates from last cycle are labelled as such and are never shown as this year’s. Confirm anything you are about to act on with RMC.
Scholarship application deadlines
Only the awards that need an application have a date. Most entrance money at Ontario universities is automatic on your average, with nothing to submit.
Last cycle’s dates, for planning
2026 cycleRMC had not published this year’s dates for these when we checked. Last year’s tell you roughly when to expect them — they are not this year’s deadlines.
- January 31, 2026Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)Tuition, books and implements required to complete a degree at the undergraduate level are provided by the Government of Canada. Officer Cadets are also provided with a salary while attending RMC. We recommend you apply as soon as you can, once you begin your final year of high school.
Every entrance scholarship at RMC, and what your average is worth
When RMC decides, and what happens after
In RMC’s own words to guidance counsellors, from the OUAC resource guide (September 2026 entry).
- When offers go out
We normally make offers of admission in April or May.
Upon entering the Royal Military College (RMC), all students must provide their final official transcripts to the Office of the Registrar.
- Deferring your offer
If a student refuses an offer, they can re-apply the following year.
OUAC dates that apply to everyone
The 2026–27 (entry September 2027) schedule from OUAC’s counsellor site, checked 2026-08-20. The source. The dates you act on yourself; the school-to-OUAC and OUAC-to-university transmission dates are on the full calendar.
- August 2026youThe OUAC relaunches Ontario Universities' Info and starts posting application material for fall 2027 admission. This is the month the information appears, not the month you can apply.
- Mid-September 2026not published by OUACyouThe OUAC application opens for Ontario high school students. OUAC has not published an exact date for this cycle — anything you see online naming a specific day is not coming from OUAC.
- January 15, 2027youThe deadline for Ontario high school students to submit their completed application. This is the one date everybody knows — but several supplementary applications land before it. The OUAC still processes applications received after this date, though individual university deadlines then apply.
- May 28, 2027youThe latest date you can expect a response if you applied by January 15 — an offer, a refusal, or a deferral of admission.
- June 1, 2027youThe earliest date a university can require you to respond to an offer or pay a deposit. Scholarships, financial aid and residence all count as part of the offer: you may accept them earlier if you want to, but nothing can be demanded of you before this date.
Deadline reminders
Supplementary applications close before the January OUAC deadline, and some land in early December. We’ll email you before the ones that apply to you.
We send your email address and the programs you’ve starred, so the reminders are the right ones. Your marks and your average are never sent — they stay in this browser. Deadline emails only, and you can reply to stop them.
