By Admissions on Jun 06, 2025
The MD Admissions Office has officially launched the new version of the Online Application System (OAS). As the new system is not connected to the previous platform, the transition will affect applicants differently based on their status:
Current & Previous Applicants (2024-25 Cycle and Earlier)
If you applied during the 2024/25 cycle or earlier, you must use the legacy URL legacy.oas.med.ubc.ca to access your application data.
Please download and save any application materials you wish to keep. Access to the legacy system will be time-limited and available only until September 30, 2025.
Recently Accepted or Waitlisted Applicants
Applicants who have received an offer or are currently on the waitlist should use the legacy URL legacy.oas.med.ubc.ca to:
- View and accept offers of admission
- Access new student information
- Communicate with the MD Admissions Office
As we transition, admissions offer notifications will be paused. They will resume June 9th.
Future Applicants (2025-26 Cycle and Beyond)
Planning to apply for the 2025/26 admissions cycle?
The new Online Application System is now available at oas.med.ubc.ca. However, the new application cycle will not open until mid-June. Please check the Admissions website regularly for updates.
