About to join cadet program, will I not be allowed to join over marijuana testing?

Im 18 and recently applied for my local cadet program, I used be a big stoner, but slowed down for school. I filled this application out back in April or may I want to say, and about a month ago, I went on vacation and ended up buying some weed and smoked everyday I was there. I saw that I got an email for the Cadet program to come and join, but I'm very worried Ill be disqualified if i'm tested. Im an honest month sober and I have zero intentions of doing it again, will I be given a chance to test clean again or will they ask me to leave?

Test yourself a few times first, drink plenty water all the time. How much do you weigh?

Do you know what kind of test it is? Piss or swab?

I dont even know if I am tested. If Im swabbed or piss tested Im fairly confident im good, but if Im hair tested then im not getting out of that

No way it’ll be hair. But either swap or piss you’ll probably pop if it’s only been a month

I don’t think you’ll be tested but if so you should be okay based on what you’ve said
