Want to learn more about the Island Medical Program (IMP), the UBC MD Undergraduate Program (MDUP), and it’s admissions pathways?
Then join the IMP admissions team for one of our free hour-long information sessions in the 2026 – 2027 academic year!
At the monthly General Sessions, you will learn everything you need to know about applying to the IMP and UBC MDUP, including admissions requirements, application dates and deadlines, academic and non-academic requirements, admission pathways, and an overview of the application process and selection criteria. You’ll also learn more about the program and have an opportunity to ask questions.
We will also be hosting additional sessions specifically focused on the Black Student Pathway, Indigenous Pathway, and Northern and Rural Pathway. These sessions will cover more specific details about each of these admission pathways, as well as introduce you to the pathway contacts who work right here at the IMP.
All of the 2026 – 2027 information sessions are available simultaneously in-person on UVic campus and on Zoom.
Please RSVP for your preferred session as well as how you would like to attend by clicking the corresponding link below. Please note, in-person seating is limited to 72 people and Zoom spaces are unlimited.
