Program requirements and deadlines

It is your responsibility to keep copies of all your documents, as we will not provide them. We are also not responsible for providing proof of immunization to other programs, clinical sites or future employers (including after graduation) and cannot help with this.

Your practical education requirements advisor will contact you with instructions on how to submit your documents.
If you have any questions about the requirements, please email them at[email protected].
 

Document authenticity and academic integrity

Any documentation submitted may be verified to confirm authenticity. The faculty reserves the right to request original documents from students at any time, to enable verification.

Falsification of documents is a serious offence and will trigger a formal investigation of academic misconduct. Such misconduct may result in disciplinary measures, including suspension or expulsion.
