Our online application system (OAS) is an essential part of how we run our admissions for the MD Undergraduate Program and how we will communicate with you during the admissions process. The application system houses a copy of all the messages we send to applicants. We recommend checking your messages for important updates from the Admissions Team about your application.
Note: We send both general messages and messages to specific applicants. It is your responsibility as an applicant to check your email and/or review the Communications tab in the application system for new messages.
Useful Resources
We encourage you to review these resources prior to beginning your online application.
- Applicant Guide: The online application is long and requires very specific information. The Applicant Guide is here to help you. Read it before you begin and refer to it as you fill in each section of the application.
- Documentation Checklist: A list of all required supporting documents to include with your application.
Important Update: MD Admissions Online Application System is Live
The MD Admissions Office has launched the new Online Application System. Please read the following important information for all applicants to the Doctor of Medicine Program:
Starting June 6th, 2025, the application data from the 2024-25 cycle or earlier must be accessed through the legacy URL legacy.oas.med.ubc.ca.
If you submitted an application for the 2024-25 cycle or earlier, please use the new legacy URL to view your submitted application and related information.
Applicants who have been accepted or are currently waitlisted should also use the new legacy URL to:
- Access new student information
- Accept offers of admission
- Communicate with the MD Admissions Office.
Please note admissions offer notifications will resume on June 9th.
If you are planning to apply in the upcoming admissions cycle, please note that while the new platform is now live at oas.med.ubc.ca, the 2025/26 application cycle will open in mid-June. Please check our Admissions website regularly for updates.
