International Medical Graduates who are citizens of countries outside North America and wish to enter residency training must be funded through a government agency or charitable organization (see Definitions of Postgraduate Trainees). Private or personal funds are not permissible. To be eligible for consideration, candidates must have satisfactorily passed the Medical Council of Canada Evaluating Examination (MCCEE), as well as the TSE and TOEFL (if applicable), and meet all the entry requirements of the Department to which they are applying.
A Pre-Entry Assessment Program (PEAP) of 4 to 12 weeks may be required for certain candidates.
