INTRODUCTION

All statistical data provided come from an annual survey conducted by the Office of Research andInformation Services (ORIS). Individual faculty information is provided by each faculty of medicine as ofJuly, 2013 and, therefore, is subject to change.

This document provides information that covers several academic years. When comparing data fromyear-to-year it is should be understood that there is some yearly variability in the context affecting thedata. Examples of such context variability include changes to the number of available places, admissionrequirements, and selection policies for some of the faculties of medicine.

General Information

There are seventeen faculties of medicine in Canada that offer programs of study leading to the award ofthe MD degree which is the first professional degree in medicine. The faculties of medicine are listed in ageographic sequence going from east to west which implies no rank ordering whatsoever.

The number of places available is determined by provincial governments based on educational andfinancial resources as well as Canadas future physician workforce requirement. Since the universities areunder provincial jurisdiction, the majority of places in a faculty of medicine are allocated to permanentresidents of the province in which the university is located.

An applicant must decide to which faculty or faculties of medicine application will be made. Obviously, thegeographic location of a faculty of medicine is of critical importance to a prospective applicant. For thoseapplicants who are free to move to any location where a place may be offered, chances of success ingaining admission may be considerably enhanced. Those who apply to only one faculty of medicine havethe smallest chance of being offered admission. As the number of applications increases, so does thechance of being offered a place at a faculty of medicine.

The competition to enter a faculty of medicine is very keen so it is important that applicants ensure thatthey fully meet the entry requirements of each faculty of medicine to which they apply. The applicantstype of pre-medical undergraduate degree and institution of study should not deter filing an application,provided that all academic prerequisites are met. Not only should applicants plan to meet all academicprerequisites, it is also important to respect all deadline dates. In general, an application ordocumentation is ignored when received after deadline dates.

Those who wish to maximize their chances of gaining admission to a Canadian faculty of medicine shouldconsider the following:

Since residence is considered in admissions, include the faculty of medicine located in your homeprovince amongst those to which applications are submitted.

If you are resident in a province with more than one faculty of medicine (Qubec, Ontario or Alberta),try to apply to more than one faculty of medicine in the province. Remember that some faculties of

medicine have far more places to allocate than others.

Some applicants are definite about a particular faculty of medicine and make only one application. Ina situation of keen competition, the determination to enter a particular faculty of medicine may betantamount to excluding oneself from the study of medicine altogether.

Ontario Medical School Application Service (OMSAS)

The six Ontario faculties of medicine use OMSAS which is a centralized application processing service,thus applicants submit only one set of application materials and academic documents regardless of thenumber of faculties to which they are applying. Each faculty of medicine independently makes the

selection decision.

The OMSAS web-site provides an on-line application service mid-July, 2013 as well as additionalinformation related to each facultys admission requirements. The web-site is a comprehensive one whereapplicants can obtain information on the application process and can view details concerning theirapplication. The OMSAS levy is composed of a base fee and an additional fee for each Ontario faculty ofmedicine to which application is made.

The application service fee is $210 plus an institutional fee for each faculty applied to. The institutionalfees will later be forwarded to the relevant faculties.

Foreign Applicants

Not all faculties of medicine accept applications from foreign students. Conversely, some faculties ofmedicine have contracts with foreign governments or institutions to accept applications forsupernumerarypositions. The conditions of admission may require that the faculty of medicine will becompensated for the entire cost of medical education, the student will not apply for post-MD (residency)

training in Canada and these graduates will return to their countries of origin to practise medicine.Information about contract positions is available from the foreign educational institutions or governmentsthat have negotiated such contracts.

Foreign students planning to study medicine in Canada are personally responsible for obtaining thenecessary student authorization and student visa to enter Canada for the purpose of study. All mattersrelated to entering Canada must be taken up at the Canadian embassy, High Commission or consulatenearest to the foreign applicant.
