FAQs

• How many applicants do you currently accept?
  
  The UCalgary Doctor of Medicine three-year-program (Undergraduate Medical Education) has welcomed about 150 students per year over the past 10 years. In fall 2023, the Alberta Ministry of Advanced Education increased funding to support the addition of seats in the Doctor of Medicine program to increase physician availability into our communities. The incremental increase (10 in 2023, 20 in 2024 and 30 in 2025) added 60 additional seats to the Doctor of Medicine program. A minimum of 85% of seats are reserved for Alberta residents.
• Can I meet with an advisor to discuss my application?
  
  We are happy to meet with applicants/prospective applicants to clarify our processes and answer questions about them, but we are not able to discuss previous applications or advise applicants on how to improve their applications.
• Do you consider the grades or credits from AP or IB courses? Do I need to send my AP or IB transcripts?
  
  No. We do not consider AP or IB courses so do not require transcripts for AP or IB courses.
• Can I apply more than once?
  
  Yes. At this time, there are no restrictions on how many times an applicant can apply.
