Registration Procedures for Undergraduate Medicine

Program Registration

Program Registration

New Students

All students entering the four-year M.D.,C.M. program must initiate registration on the web via Minerva. The Minerva registration period for newly admitted Medicine students is June 11 to August 14, 2018; further information is available here.

In order for the official registration in the M.D.,C.M. program at 不良研究所 to be confirmed, the student must also present him or herself, with proper documentation, at the Faculty Registration and Orientation held from August 21 to August 23, 2018. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. For more details, consult www.mcgill.ca/ugme/mdcm-curriculum-joint-programs.

Failure to attend orientation will result in cancellation of the student's offer of admission to the program and registration.

For further information, consult Minerva and the registration information mailed to incoming students in June, as well as www.mcgill.ca/importantdates.

Returning Students

All returning students must register on the web by adding the courses per term and year on Minerva. Returning students must register by the deadline specified or pay the appropriate late registration fees.

For further information, consult Minerva and the registration information emailed to returning students in early April, as well as www.mcgill.ca/importantdates.

Leaves of Absence

Leaves of Absence

Note: This section is subject to change. For the complete Absences and Leaves Policy, students should refer to www.mcgill.ca/ugme/academic-policies/absences-and-leaves.

Leaves of absence during medical studies are generally discouraged, and the few exceptions are granted only for reasons of health or family crises. Requests for leave must be discussed with the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Medical Education) or Assistant Dean (Student Affairs). The student must submit documentation to support the leave request (e.g., medical note, description of professional development plan, etc.) to the UGME Office. The M.D.,C.M. program reserves the right to impose a limitation on the number of leaves, as well as the total duration. The M.D.,C.M. program must be completed within seven (7) years (see Promotions Regulations, point #35).

A leave for medical reasons may be granted for up to one year. Should the student request a prolongation beyond one year, the M.D.,C.M. program reserves the right to require a second opinion from a Faculty-designated physician. A student returning from a medical leave must provide documentation from the treating physician/professional counsellor attesting to the student's readiness to resume studies.

Once the leave has been approved by the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Medical Education) or Assistant Dean (Student Affairs), the student's registration and fees must be clarified with the Student Records Officer. Students may be required to forfeit all or part of their tuition fees. All students must have an interview with the Student Aid Office to reassess impact on financial aid.

The Associate Dean will present the student's request and associated documentation to the Student Promotions Committee (SPC). The Chair of the SPC will communicate the decision of the Committee to the student in writing by email to the student's 不良研究所 email address.

When a student has been approved for a leave of four weeks or longer, a narrative comment will be added to the student's record (MSPR) stating the student has been granted a leave of absence. Absences that prevent a student from completing a university term will also be indicated on the university transcript. The reason for the leave will not be stated.

Requirements for License

Requirements for Medical License

Candidates accepted for admission are reminded that it is their personal responsibility to ensure that they fulfil all the licensing requirements of the country in which they intend to practise medicine. A university degree does not confer the right to practise. In each province of Canada, in each state of the United States, and in all other countries, the authority to license is vested in a licensing body which has its own special laws and requirements. In many cases, a special standard of general education is insisted upon before beginning the study of medicine. One of the requirements in several provinces is that the entrance qualifications of the student must be registered with the provincial licensing body for five years or more before a licence to practise can be obtained.

Candidates accepted for admission should therefore communicate as soon as possible with the licensing body of the country, province or state in which they intend to practise, and obtain from that licensing body the necessary instructions.

Candidates wishing to practise medicine in the province of Quebec must also meet the French language requirement for professionals, as described in the University Regulations and Resources: Language Requirements for Professions.
