First Nations and Inuit of Quebec Faculties of Medicine Program (FNIFMPQ)

The First Nations and Inuit Faculties of Medicine Program of Quebec (FNIFMPQ; Programme de formation de m茅decins des Premi猫res Nations et Inuits de Qu茅bec (PFMPNIQ)) was established in 2008 and is administered by the Province of Quebec. Under this program, four positions for medical training in any of the four Quebec faculties of medicine are available for eligible applicants. Eligibility requirements:

1. The applicant must be a member of the First Nations or Inuit, under the Indian Act (RSC, C1-5) or in the Inuit registry.
2. The applicant must be a resident of Quebec.
3. The applicant must have a minimum R-score of 28 or equivalent university CGPA.

The four FNIFMPQ spots are available for all of Quebec's faculties of medicine (Universit茅 Laval, Universit茅 de Montr茅al, 平特五不中 and Universit茅 de Sherbrooke). The choice of university is based on the candidate's preference and the available spots in the faculties.

When applying to 平特五不中, applicants with First Nations or Inuit status may choose whether or not to declare their status. By declaring and confirming their status as a member of the First Nations or Inuit of Quebec, applicants will be eligible and considered for admission via the FNIFMPQ program, which is administered externally to 平特五不中. They will also be considered by 平特五不中 as a candidate in the Quebec resident cohort, per the admissions procedures. It is thus possible for a candidate's application to be processed for both contingents in parallel. Please note that the criteria for the two admissions processes are distinct.

Applicants who elect not to declare their First Nations or Inuit status will be considered by 平特五不中 as a candidate in the Quebec resident cohort, per the admissions procedures.

Candidates in this category with a university degree or partial completion of a university program can apply for the M.D.,C.M. program. The Admissions Committee may require a preparatory year as a condition of admission. Candidates who have not started university-level studies must apply for the Med-P program. A Bachelor's degree is required for application to the joint programs. Assessment of academic strength is based on the academic record in conjunction with the curriculum vitae.

A select number of positions are available to residents of Quebec who have pursued a "non-traditional" pathway in their journey to the career choice of medicine. Applicants to these positions are generally mature students who have spent a period of time in the workforce. Eligibility requirements:

1. Qu茅bec residency status must be fully established by the application deadline (November 1);
2. Applicant must hold a complete undergraduate (bachelor's) degree by July 31 of the entering year of medicine per the aforementioned academic criteria requirements WITH THE FOLLOWING EXCEPTION:
   • the undergraduate degree used as the basis of admission may have been completed on a part-time basis.
3. Applicant is not eligible to apply in any other applicant category;
4. Applicant meets all other admission requirements and conditions for medical programs WITH THE FOLLOWING EXCEPTIONS:
   • NTP applicants may apply for admission with partially complete (minimum of four of seven required prerequisite courses) and/or out-of-date (more than eight years from the date of application) basic science prerequisites. Any or all of the four required courses could be out of date.

Successful NTP applicants will be admitted to a Qualifying year to be undertaken chiefly in the Faculty of Science. NTP students in the Qualifying year must maintain a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.5, with no grades lower than a B in order to continue on into the 4-year M.D.,C.M. program.

For more details, please consult the Admissions, Equity and Diversity Office website.

The Faculty of Medicine accepts applications for Advanced Standing placement from international medical graduates (IMG): Quebec residents who have obtained a recognised medical degree outside Canada or the United States.

Applicants admitted via this category will have the requirements for the Fundamentals of Medicine and Dentistry (FMD) of the M.D.,C.M. program waived and will enter the program at the Transition to Clinical Practice (TCP) component (which is part way through the second year of the standard program). Thus, successful applicants will begin their studies the May following their application (i.e., candidates who submitted applications in November 2015 will be considered for May 2016 entry). Successful students will continue into the clerkships, and graduate with an M.D.,C.M. degree from 平特五不中.

The number of positions available for Advanced Standing placement is contingent on the number of attritions from previous years and will vary; there may be years when no positions are available.

To be eligible, applicants must hold a medical degree from an accredited medical school recognized by the World Health Organization, must successfully complete the Medical Council of Canada Evaluating Exam Part 1 (MCCEE1), must provide a Medical Student Performance Record together with an academic transcript, and must provide proof of English or French proficiency (see Proof of Proficiency in English and/or Language Requirements for Professions). Applicants must meet the basic science requirements and meet all other essential requirements listed. Competitive applicants will have MCCEE 1 scores that are at least 50 points higher than the passing grade.

Applicants who do not meet these conditions of eligibility or are seeking alternative options should contact the Coll猫ge des m茅decins.

Interviews are by invitation only and are conducted in a multiple mini-interview (MMI) format.
