Canadian Coast Guard Academy admissions process

Applying to the Officer Training Program is different than applying to a university or college. By applying to our learning program, you are also applying to a government of Canada job posting. Learn about the different steps of our admissions process, including:

educational assessment
screening questions
interview and interview prep
medical assessment
security check

Presentations will resume in September of 2026. For individual interview preparation or to discuss the admissions process, please register via Speak to a Recruiter.
