Positions to train in medicine in Quebec are determined by governmental decree. Three cohorts are defined: residents of Quebec (subdivided into students admitted into the preparatory medicine (Med-P – médecine préparatoire) program from CEGEP, students with a Bachelor's degree or greater, the Non-Traditional Pathway for more mature students, and International Medical Graduates), Out-of-Province Canadians, and International students. In addition, there is a provincial program for qualified Indigenous students who are residents of Quebec, in which McGill University is an active and enthusiastic participant. Students within each cohort compete with each other for a pre-determined number of positions within the particular cohort. See the rest of this publication for details regarding eligibility criteria for each cohort.
