INTRODUCTION
All statistical data provided com e from an annual survey conducted by the Office of Research and Inform ation
Services (ORIS). Individual faculty inform ation is provided by each faculty of m edicine as of July, 2008 and
therefore is subject to change. ORIS also publishes “Canadian Medical Education Statistics” each Septem ber.
This book provides detailed statistics concerning application to and enrolm ent in faculties of m edicine.
W hen com paring data from year to year there are certain considerations to keep in m ind. There have been
increases to the num ber of available places for the study of m edicine at m any faculties of m edicine. Also,
adm ission requirem ents and selection policies of individual faculties of m edicine m ay vary from year to year.
General Information
There are seventeen faculties of m edicine in Canada that offer program s of study leading to the award of the
MD degree which is the first professional degree in m edicine. The faculties of m edicine are listed in a
geographic sequence going from east to west which im plies no rank ordering whatsoever.
The num ber of places available is determ ined by provincial governm ents based on educational and financial
resources as well as Canada’s future physician workforce requirem ent. Since the universities are under
provincial jurisdiction, the m ajority of places in a faculty of m edicine are allocated to perm anent residents of
the province in which the university is located.
Provided academ ic prerequisites have been m et, the type of undergraduate degree earned or program
followed should not deter filing an application. Also, whether or not the previous institution attended has a
faculty of m edicine does not affect the chance of adm ission.
An applicant m ust decide to which faculty or faculties of m edicine application will be m ade. Obviously, the
geographic location of a faculty of m edicine is of critical im portance to a prospective applicant. For those
applicants who are free to m ove to any location where a place m ay be offered, chances of success in gaining
adm ission m ay be considerably enhanced. Those who apply to only one faculty of m edicine have the sm allest
chance of being offered adm ission. As the num ber of applications increases, so does the chance of being
offered a place at a faculty of m edicine.
The com petition to enter a faculty of m edicine is very keen so it is im portant that applicants ensure that they
fully m eet the entry requirem ents of each faculty of m edicine to which they apply. Not only should applicants
plan to m eet all academ ic prerequisites, it is also im portant to respect all deadline dates. In general, an
application or docum entation is ignored when received after deadline dates.
Those who wish to m axim ize their chances of gaining adm ission to a Canadian faculty of m edicine should
consider the following:
! Since residence is considered in adm issions, include the faculty of m edicine located in your hom e
province am ongst those to which applications are subm itted.
! If you are resident in a province with m ore than one faculty of m edicine (Québec, Ontario or Alberta),
try to apply to m ore than one faculty of m edicine in the province. Rem em ber that som e faculties of
m edicine have far m ore places to allocate than others.
! Som e applicants are definite about a particular faculty of m edicine and m ake only one application.
In a situation of keen com petition, the determ ination to enter a particular faculty of m edicine m ay be
tantam ount to excluding oneself from the study of m edicine altogether.

Ontario M edical School Application Service (OM SAS)

Service ontarien de demande d’admission en médecine
The six Ontario faculties of m edicine use OMSAS which is a centralized application processing service, thus
applicants subm it only one set of application m aterials and academ ic docum ents regardless of the num ber
of faculties to which they are applying. Each faculty of m edicine independently m akes the selection decision.
The OMSAS web-site provides an on-line application service m id-July, 2008 as well as additional inform ation
related to each faculty’s adm ission requirem ents. The web-site is a com prehensive one where applicants can
obtain inform ation on the application process and can view details concerning their application. The OMSAS
levy is com posed of a base fee and an additional fee for each Ontario faculty of m edicine to which application
is m ade.
The on-line application fees (see below) are dependent on the num ber of faculties chosen.

M edical College Admission Test (M CAT)
The MCAT is a standardized, m ultiple-choice exam ination designed to assess problem solving, critical thinking
and writing skills in addition to the exam inee’s knowledge of science concepts and principles prerequisite to
the study of m edicine. The test is not required by all faculties of m edicine and the extent to which test results
are used in adm ission decisions varies by faculty of m edicine.
The test consists of four test sections: the Verbal Reasoning, Physical Sciences and Biological Sciences
sections contain m ultiple-choice questions and the scores range from a low of 1 to a high of 15 for each
section; the W riting Sam ple section consists of two essays and the total score ranges from a low of J to a high
of T.
The com puter-based test is given at established test centres in Canada, the United States and overseas. Visit
the web-site for dates and locations. The overall length of the test day is approxim ately four and one-half
hours. The regular exam ination fee was $210 in US funds for the 2008 test dates.

Repeat Applicants
An applicant who does not receive an offer of adm ission m ust decide whether to re-apply for adm ission in a
subsequent year. Rejected candidates should try to reach an objective assessm ent of why they did not receive
an offer. Unsuccessful applicants should realize that the reason for rejection m ay not be the lack of ability or
qualities but the sheer rationing of places that is necessary when the num ber of qualified candidates greatly
exceeds the num ber of available places. W ell qualified candidates have grounds for re-applying for adm ission
to a faculty of m edicine and in recent years, repeat applicants have fared well. T he academ ically weaker
candidates tend not to re-apply for adm ission to the sam e extent as do those who have a sound academ ic
background.
Applying to Study M edicine Outside Canada
If for any reason an applicant decides to seek adm ission to a m edical faculty outside Canada, som e im portant
factors m ust be borne in m ind. The m ost im portant of these is that returning to practise m edicine in Canada
m ay prove difficult. This is not m eant to deter individuals from seeking education in foreign universities —
som e Canadian citizens have always gone abroad to study in recognized, reputable universities. Lim itations
on recognition of foreign earned MDs apply to qualifications earned abroad by citizens as well as by
non-citizens of Canada. Strong m otivation, determ ination and adequate academ ic preparation are in
them selves no guarantee that a Canadian citizen who attends a foreign m edical faculty will be able to train
or practise m edicine in Canada in the future.
4
Foreign Applicants
Not all faculties of m edicine accept applications from foreign students. Conversely, som e faculties of m edicine
have contracts with foreign governm ents or institutions to accept applications for “supernum erary” positions.
It is understood that the faculty of m edicine will be com pensated for the entire cost of m edical 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 m edicine. Inform ation about contract positions is available from the foreign
educational institutions or governm ents that have negotiated such contracts.
Foreign students planning to study m edicine in Canada are personally responsible for obtaining the necessary
student authorization and student visa to enter Canada for the purpose of study. All m atters related to entering
Canada m ust be taken up at the Canadian em bassy, High Com m ission or consulate nearest to the foreign
applicant.
