Doctor of Medicine Doctor of Medicine > Introduction The Faculty of Medicine offers the Medical Doctor Undergraduate Program (MDUP), which leads to the Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree. The program requires a minimum of 90 university credits in preparation for the MD degree plus four years of study in Medicine. A physician's education can be broadly divided into four phases: 1. Pre-medical preparation, which can be completed in a variety of faculties or programs. 2. MDUP training (four years). 3. Residency training (two years or more). 4. Continuing professional development. The MDUP provides the medical school training referenced in the second phase above. Doctor of Medicine > Admission Selection of a Program of Pre-Medical Studies Students planning to apply for admission to the MD Undergraduate Program should select courses that conform to the requirements of a bachelor's degree of their choice. No particular degree program is considered ideal No particular degree program is considered ideal as preparation for the study and practice of medicine. A variety of pre-medical academic backgrounds are considered desirable. Students who have completed programs and who then enrol in unclassified non-degree programs for the sole purpose of improving their academic qualifications for admission are advised that only a small proportion of such candidates ultimately gain admission. Prerequisites Requirements and Recommended Courses Candidates for admission must be Canadian Citizens or Permanent Residents. Persons with refugee status in Canada can also apply, however admission will be contingent on attaining permanent residency in Canada and providing proof of this status two weeks prior to the start of classes. Further information can be found at MD Undergraduate Admissions (http://mdprogram.med.ubc.ca/admissions/admission-requirements/).

This document was generated on 16 Jun 2021 at 2:21 PM. 2021/22 Vancouver Calendar The Faculty of Medicine Candidates must have completed a minimum of 90 graded credits of university-level study (e.g., excluding pass/fail credits). These, including the required university-level prerequisite coursework (or their equivalents) must be completed by April 30 of the year for which admission is sought. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic Term 2 of the 2019-2020 academic year (or equivalent term) credits will count towards minimum credit requirement in the 2020-2021, 2021-2022, and 2022-2023 application cycles even if assigned pass/fail grades (provided the courses are passed). Grades from Term 2 of the 2019-2020 academic year (or equivalent term) will not be included in the calculation of GPA. A full year of English (minimum of 6 credits) is the only prerequisite coursework required for entry into the Doctor of Medicine program. However, courses in biology, general/inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry are strongly recommended. Further information on recommended courses can be found at M.D. Undergraduate Admissionshttp://mdprogram.med.ubc.ca/admissions/ ( ). Medical College Admission Test All applicants must take the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) and request that their results be released to UBC. Information and online registration are available on the MCAThttp://www.aamc.org/students/applying/mcat/ ( ) website. Please note: UBC is not a part of the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). You must therefore specify that you would like your test results released to UBC. This can only be done after your results have been sent to you. Please use the MCAT Score Reporting System to send your scores to UBC; refer to the Help Questions within the Score Reporting System for specific instructions. Applicants are strongly encouraged to review the “Scores Sent to Institutions” option to confirm that results have been successfully released to UBC. This is not done automatically. Applicants are required to meet a minimum score in each component of the test. These scores will be determined each year by Admissions Committees. Applicants should check MD Undergraduate Admissions (http://mdprogram.med.ubc.ca/admissions/) for the current minimum requirements, dates of valid MCAT sittings, and deadline for receipt of test scores. If you have written the MCAT more than once, the best overall score will be used as long as that exam meets the current MCAT requirements provided on the MD Admissions website. For further information, applicants should review the Admissions Requirements and Evaluation Criteria sections of the Admissions website. It is the applicant's responsibility to ensure that all results are released to the UBC Faculty of Medicine and received by the MD Admissions Office. Required Academic Standards Applications for admission will be considered from candidates who are Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or who have Canadian refugee status, and who will have completed all
