I am planning on attending university but doing a degree that does not have any links with the Army but I know I deffinitely want to join after and have the degree as a fall back just in case. Is there any way that you can put in a application for a few years in advance?

You can certainly register your interest with your local careers office or online

Hi @Zoe, it is a great idea to apply in advance. If you are looking at joining as an Officer, your pass at selection is valid for 5 years, and the average application process can take 9-12 months.
