My submariner application took 6 months to get my date for Raleigh. But don't start till November. This could be due to my age and the role I applied for. As my role requires anyone passing out to be 17 years 2 months. However do not join submarines just to get in to Raleigh faster. You wont get into the Navy with that attitude. The Royal Navy doesn't want to spend thousands to train you just for you to leave due to the tight spaces, lack of daylight and long deployments. However I do understand why you would want to get in fast. You might want to contact your local careers office or call the
Royal Navy about resuming your application. I guess it would depend on how long it has been since you pulled out the application process.
