Candidates accepted for admission are reminded that it is their personal responsibility to ensure that they fulfil all the licensing requirements of the country in which they intend to practice medicine. A university degree does not confer the right to practice. In each province of Canada, in each state of the United States, and in all other countries, the authority to license is vested in a licensing body which has its own special laws and requirements. In many cases, a special standard of general education is insisted upon before beginning the study of medicine.

Candidates accepted for admission should therefore communicate as soon as possible with the licensing body of the country, province or state in which they intend to practice, and obtain from that licensing body the necessary instructions.

Candidates wishing to practice medicine in the province of Quebec must also meet the French language requirement for professionals, as described in the University Regulations and Resources: Language Requirements for Professions.
