Additional information for prospective international resident applicants (version anglaise)

Residency/Fellowship Programs

Students should know that acceptance into residency programs of any Canadian province is governed by province-specific rules and regulations.

At the present time, international students (other than US citizens) wishing to pursue residency training in the United States of America should be aware that the appropriate route to do so is the J-1 Visa.

For U.S.A. Applicants

Accreditation

The Faculty of Medicine is jointly accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) of the American Association of Medical Colleges (AAMC) and American Medical Association (AMA). Studying at McGill is equivalent to studying medicine in a US medical school. American students studying at McGill write the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) in the same way and at the same time as American students studying in US medical schools.

Residency

While American medical students are eligible to do residency training in Québec, US program directors recognise the high calibre of McGill graduates and those students are very competitive in their US residency applications.
