Entry requirements

Applicants should hold an MD degree and must have performed satisfactorily on the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). Other applicants without an MD must hold an equivalent terminal degree (i.e., MSW, PharmD, PhD) and must have performed satisfactorily on an admission test equivalent to the MCAT (i.e., GRE). Applicants whose first language is not English must submit official test scores to verify English proficiency. Applicants can verify English proficiency by submitting official test scores from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), or the Duolingo English Test (DET).

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate and professional admission requirements, costs and deadlines are set by each degree programme; applicants apply through the Admissions Profile application and may apply to only one programme unless applying to a combined degree programme.
