Hello all,
I'm in the process of applying for a commission and up to now have only had a chat with my local recruiting officer. Whilst I know that they will take people up to 29 on entry to RMAS, what I want to know is 27 years old getting on a bit to be signing up??
Also, from what I have heard about entry dates to Sandhurst, I will be 28 by the time I actually get there!!
To cut a very long story short I was a long way down the road to getting to RMAS back in uni but one thing led to another and I fell into the 'comfortable' world of corporate life. 4 years down the road it really isn't what it was cracked up to be....!!
Do anybody have any experience/advice about 'late' entry to Sandhurst? What will life be like if I find myself in a regiment as a Lt at the age of 30?
One side of me says go for it and not worry about it....after all I would be there to do a job and not conform to an age limit!!
Thoughts on a postcard please!!
