Application file review

There are a few milestones on the path between submitting an application and receiving an admission decision:

1. Preliminary evaluation

Once you have completed the online application and all of your supporting documents have been received, the Faculty Admissions Committee will conduct a preliminary evaluation of your credentials.

If it is determined that you meet our minimum qualifications, you will be invited for a personal interview.

2. Personal interview

If you are considered a qualified applicant, an associate director of admissions will contact you to arrange a personal interview.

During the interview, you will be allowed to discuss your academic record and provide any other background information that will help the admissions committee assess your maturity, aptitude, and motivation.

3. Application decision

Approximately two weeks after your interview, you will receive an email notifying you of your official admissions decision. (Please note: the decision-making timeline may be extended during semester breaks and holiday periods.)

There are five decision options:

Acceptance to the Basic Science Program: The applicant has been accepted to attend 六九色堂 in the requested entry term.
Acceptance/Wait-List: The applicant has been accepted to attend 六九色堂; however, their intended semester of matriculation is full. The applicant is placed on a waitlist and confirmed for the next available semester. If a vacancy occurs, the applicant may still start in their original intended semester.
Acceptance to the Extended Basic Science Program (EBS): This program is designed for entering students who wish to spread the work of the first four semesters over a five-semester period instead. (Learn more about the EBS program.)
The Accelerated Review Program (ARP): This program is designed for students who have the potential to become successful physicians, but who require additional academic foundation work and study skills preparation to ensure their success in the rigorous medical education program. (Learn more about the ARP program.)
Denial: The applicant has not met the minimum entrance qualifications as determined by the 六九色堂 Faculty Admissions Committee. To appeal this decision, an applicant must do so in writing and must supply additional supporting documentation for review by the committee.
