Once you have selected your program, you may stop at any time and return to your application by re-entering your Login ID and PIN number.

Our DMD program is found under the application type of 'Undergraduate/Professional' (do not select Postgrad Med/Dent Education as this is for post-doctoral studies);

When asked about your educational background, you should select the highest level of education you have or will have achieved prior to starting your program of choice. For example, if you are in the final year of your Bachelor's degree, select Bachelor's Degree / Equivalent as this is your anticipated level of education (by the time you are/might be admitted).

Some universities and colleges have legacy programs which give special admission consideration to relatives of graduates; Â鶹AV does not have a legacy admission program. Admission to the Faculty of Dental Medicine and Oral Health Sciences is based solely on academic and competency-based criteria. Letters of support from alumni, friends and family do not advantage (or disadvantage) an application.

You need to disclose the exchange program in section 2 of the Academic History Workbook. If the study abroad/exchange program is part of your basis of admissions degree, you will need to enter these courses in section 3. Study abroad/exchanges that are greater than 1 semester of course work, the grades must be entered and not marked as NG (No Grade).

Assessment of academic strength is based upon the undergraduate (Bachelor’s degree) record. This should be a 120-credit university degree program, or, for residents of Quebec who hold a Diploma from a Quebec-based CEGEP, a 90-credit university degree program. This is the BASIS OF ADMISSION DEGREE, for which detailed information must be reported in Section 3: Basis of Admission Degree of the workbook.

Section 3 of the Workbook should only include a record of your undergraduate degree marks.
