UdeM DMD admissions: Fall 2027

For Fall 2027 entry, Université de Montréal has published its D.M.D. requirements, application windows, French-language deadlines, Canadian dental aptitude test requirement, Casper requirement, and an 80% academic/20% Casper selection model for the main applicant categories. The faculty may require a French in-person interview for some applicants, but it has not published a universal interview schedule or format. Start with one fair-access response, review one weakness, and record a stronger second attempt.

Admission requirements

Applicants must meet one of the published Quebec college, university-degree, or equivalent academic routes and complete the applicable biology, chemistry, mathematics, and physics prerequisites before entry. The exact prerequisite route depends on prior education, so use the official program table for your category. UdeM academic requirements

For first-year admission, applicants must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents by the application deadline, complete the Canadian dental aptitude test, complete Casper, and meet the French-language requirement that applies to their prior studies. The program is not open to applicants applying on a study permit. UdeM eligibility and assessments

The dental aptitude test must be completed by March 1 of the admission year. A perceptual-ability score below 10 is eliminatory; the official page does not publish the Fall 2027 Casper sitting dates, so applicants should confirm them through UdeM and Acuity. UdeM test requirements

Important dates

Applications open August 1, 2026. The Fall 2027 application deadline is March 1, 2027 for applicants with only Quebec college studies and November 1, 2026 for university applicants or applicants who studied outside Quebec. UdeM Fall 2027 application dates

The same source separately lists French-language requirement deadlines of March 15, 2027 for applicants with only Quebec college studies and November 15, 2026 for university or outside-Quebec applicants. Do not confuse those dates with the earlier application deadlines. UdeM French requirement dates

The dental aptitude test must be completed by March 1, 2027. Exact Fall 2027 Casper test dates and any interview date are not published on the program page as of August 9, 2026. UdeM test notes

How selection works

For college, university, and eligible French-speaking outside-Quebec categories, UdeM publishes an overall score based on 80% academic record and 20% Casper. For university applicants, the relative weight of university results increases with the number of university credits completed. UdeM selection criteria

The faculty may invite some applicants to a French in-person interview based on their Casper performance; that interview can be eliminatory. The page does not say every applicant or every shortlisted applicant receives one. Admission capacity is limited and category-specific. UdeM selection and capacity

Interview details

Confirmed

For Fall 2027, UdeM states that the admissions committee may require some applicants to attend an in-person interview in French. The decision is based on Casper performance, and the interview may be eliminatory. UdeM interview rule

Not published

The faculty has not published a universal Fall 2027 interview date, duration, location beyond the in-person requirement, panel size, question count, station structure, scoring rubric, invitation threshold, or confirmation that every applicant category can be called. Follow the official invitation if one is issued. UdeM D.M.D. admissions

Who this program may suit

The UdeM D.M.D. is a French-language, full-time dental program in Montréal with 219 credits, progressive pre-clinical and clinical learning, and patient care beginning during the program. Applicants comparing Quebec dental programs may value its direct Quebec college route, clinical focus, and emphasis on academic preparation plus Casper. UdeM D.M.D. program

The strongest practical constraint is language and category fit: applicants need to satisfy the current French requirement, legal-status rules, prerequisite route, and assessment deadlines. This is a program-comparison interpretation, not an admission prediction.

Practice and next step

First practice: record one answer to Fair access under pressure. State the competing needs, identify the information you would clarify, choose a transparent decision rule, and explain the outcome respectfully. This directly exercises the ethical reasoning, empathy, problem-solving, and communication used in Casper-style preparation.

Review the recording for one observable weakness—such as choosing a rule without explaining it, overlooking one affected person, or ending without a follow-up plan. Make one adjustment, record the response again, and compare the two attempts. Use CASPer Essentials: Frameworks to Game Plan to repeat the same improvement loop across additional scenarios.
