University of Calgary Calendar 2010-2011 Faculty of Medicine 5. Doctor of Medicine 5.2 Admissions
5.2 Admissions
Premedicine

The Faculty of Medicine does not require that a student undertake a formal premedical program. Rather, nine courses are recommended as they should provide adequate preparation for entry into medicine. While these might be viewed as prerequisites, the admissions committee is prepared to waive certain courses for students who have pursued unusual educational programs. It is the intention of the faculty to permit entry of exceptional students from other disciplines into medicine without demanding that they spend undue time on traditional premedical courses.
