DMD Advanced Standing for Foreign Trained Dentists Pathway

IMPORTANT NOTE: As of August 2022, a change of policy will give priority to candidates who are residents of Quebec. However, Canadian citizens or permanent residents of Canada will still be considered if enough space is available in our program. 

The DMD Advanced Standing for Foreign Trained Dentists Pathway is intended for graduates of international dental programs that are not accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation of Canada (CDAC). Internationally trained dentists that would like to complete their Doctor of Dental Medicine (D.M.D.) degree should apply for this program.

Successful candidates will be awarded their D.M.D. degree after completing 2.5 years of the D.M.D. Program. Students accepted into the DMD Advanced Standing for Foreign Trained Dentists Pathway are placed in the second half of the second year of the 4-year DMD program.

The number of positions available for this pathway varies every year depending on the space available. Successful candidates will begin the program in early December.

Space availability: There are 6 available seats for 2023.
