Before You Apply
Applying to medical school is a highly competitive process that demands far more than strong academic performance. Applicants must demonstrate a sustained commitment to service, evidence of leadership and teamwork, and a capacity for resilience in the face of challenge. The Admissions Office employs a holistic review process, evaluating applicants on both requirements and lived experience. A career as a physician is a demanding and rewarding life choice and we seek well-rounded applicants with diverse personal backgrounds and a committment to serve the people of Newfoundland and Labrador. The journey to medical school requires careful preparation, self-reflection, and the motivation to be a life-long learner.
