MCAT Student Support Program (MSSP) – Applications Now Open for 2026

At the UBC Faculty of Medicine we recognize that the path to medical school can be challenging, and we are committed to providing the necessary resources to help our students succeed.

 

We are pleased to share that the UBC MD Admissions Office is now accepting application for the 2026 MCAT Student Support Program (MSSP).

Offered in collaboration with the Temerty Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto, the MSSP is an 11-week program running from early May to late July, designed to support prospective medical students with high financial need and who come from underrepresented communities as they prepare for the MCAT.

This structured prep program provides participants with access to expert-led instructional sessions, MCAT resources, and test-taking strategies to help them feel confident and prepared for the MCAT exam.

Who Can Apply?

This program is open to students and applicants who:

  • Are planning to write the MCAT
  • Demonstrate high financial need
  • Can commit to the full 11-week program
  • Are residents of British Columbia (applicants from Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut will be considered BC residents for this program)
