Medical school admissions in Manitoba
Manitoba has one medical school, in Winnipeg. This page sets out how the province's process is structured. Requirements and seat allocations change between cycles, so confirm the current details on each school's own admissions page.
How you apply
The University of Manitoba Max Rady College of Medicine applies through the university's own admissions system rather than a shared provincial portal.
In-province and out-of-province eligibility
Manitoba shows a very strong preference for Manitoba residents. Out-of-province applicants are considered for a much smaller share of seats, so residency should be confirmed before treating Manitoba as a realistic target.
What is specific to Manitoba
- The college publishes distinct pathways, including Indigenous and rural streams, each with its own process.
- As the only medical school in the province, it is usually applied to alongside schools in Ontario or the Prairies.
