Each Quebec Medical Resident who participated in the Quebec match will receive a maximum of one “offer”. It is therefore a match and not, strictly speaking, an “offer” of admission that the resident would be free to accept or not. By participating in the match, residents implicitly commit to the position that will be assigned to them at the end of the process. If matched in Quebec, and to complete their two years of training at the admitting faculty.
The following basic principles will apply:
- Residents can only be matched with a university that has ranked them;
- A program will only receive residents it has ranked.
The process will be designed to match candidates to the best possible position based on their rank order list and the rank order list of programs to which they have applied.
