Program details
Overview
The Doctor of Medicine program at the University of Manitoba is delivered in person over four years, based primarily at the Bannatyne campus. The curriculum is organized into eight modules: a pre-clerkship phase (modules zero through three), a transition-to-clerkship module, and clerkship and clinical rotations (modules five through seven). Clerkship includes eight core clinical rotations in surgery, anesthesia, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine, emergency medicine, psychiatry, and family medicine, along with elective rotations and community-based placements in urban, rural, and remote settings across the province. The program admits 140 students annually through an advanced-entry pathway requiring a completed bachelor's degree from a recognized university and a minimum adjusted GPA of 3.30, the Medical College Admission Test, the CASPer situational judgment test, and a Multiple Mini Interview for shortlisted candidates, with three reference letters required from those invited to interview. The program suits students seeking a clinically intensive medical education that combines structured pre-clerkship learning with hands-on rotations across a wide range of specialties and settings, including opportunities to pursue research alongside clinical training in diverse healthcare environments throughout Manitoba.

Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens and permanent residents) apply directly to the University of Manitoba. As of this September 2026 fetch, the Direct Entry deadlines page shows only the Fall 2026 cycle in full - University 1 and the Diploma in Agriculture at May 1, 2026 domestic / March 1, 2026 international, other Direct Entry programs at March 1, 2026 - a cycle that has already closed, alongside minor Winter 2027 (Dec 1, 2026) and Summer 2027 (Apr 1, 2027) intake deadlines. No Fall 2027 Direct Entry deadline has been published yet, so specific 2027 dates cannot be stated for the university's main intake. The Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Jazz Studies deadline (January 15, applying equally to domestic and international applicants) is likewise confirmed only for the 2026-27 cycle, also closed, with no 2027-28 bulletin posted. These are described as fixed deadlines rather than rolling admission, and the university opens each new cycle's applications on October 1. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
