Current-cycle decision support
Turn confirmed information into a first practice
Clinic appointment access and fairness
Original Videoath MMI-style spoken practice for the McMaster admissions-page canary. This is not a recalled or confidential McMaster question. Review the response for a clear opening position, affected people and interests, missing information, fair trade-offs, respectful communication, and a concise conclusion. Use a two-attempt loop: review one observable weakness, then record the same prompt again with that adjustment.

Admission requirements
Requirements depend on your applicant category, so use the official category rules rather than one universal checklist. For regular university applicants targeting Fall 2027, Université Laval says at least 60 university credits in one program must have been completed by the end of summer 2026; category-specific academic prerequisites and legal-status rules also apply. Université Laval MD requirements
Applicants in the regular process must complete Canada Casper 2 in French for the 2027 admission period. English or prior-cycle results are not accepted, and the French test can be taken only once per admission period. Université Laval Casper requirements
Special pathways, including international medical graduates, First Nations and Inuit applicants, and oral and maxillofacial surgery candidates, use different conditions or selection steps. Confirm the category that applies before relying on the regular-process summary. Université Laval category rules
Important dates
For Fall 2027 entry, applications open August 15, 2026. The published application deadlines are November 1, 2026 for anyone enrolled previously or currently at a university, February 1, 2027 for certain non-Canadian pre-university applicants, and March 1, 2027 for eligible applicants with a DEC or equivalent and no university enrolment by November 1. Université Laval application dates
Université Laval lists French Casper sittings by category from September 2026 through March 2027 and separate result-distribution deadlines. Check the official table for the dates that match your category. Université Laval 2027 Casper dates
The university has announced Laval–Montréal MEM dates of April 17 and 18, 2027. It says complete 2027 MEM information will be added in autumn 2026. Université Laval MEM update
How selection works
For most regular Fall 2027 applicants, the published sequence is category eligibility and academic review, French Casper, any category-specific intermediate assessment, and then MEM for candidates who advance. Université Laval selection process
For the regular process, Université Laval says final selection is based exclusively on the MEM result. Different rules apply to named special categories, so do not generalize that weighting to every applicant. Université Laval final selection
The school has published the 2027 MEM dates but has not yet published the complete 2027 logistics. Treat any 2026 station timing or location details as historical until the promised autumn 2026 update appears. Université Laval MEM update
Interview details
Confirmed
Mini-entrevues multiples are a confirmed selection stage for Fall 2027, and the Laval–Montréal MEM dates are April 17 and 18, 2027. Université Laval describes MEM as assessing personal competencies and general aptitudes rather than specific medical knowledge. Université Laval MEM information
Not published
As of August 8, 2026, Université Laval says complete MEM 2027 information will arrive in autumn 2026. The 2027 station count, station timing, exact site allocation, invitation waves and other candidate logistics are therefore not yet confirmed. Do not carry the 2026 details forward. Université Laval MEM update
Who this program may suit
Université Laval may suit applicants who want a French-language, full-time medical program with pre-clerkship training in Québec City, Lévis or Rimouski. The 2027 allocation is approximately 247 places in Québec City, 30 in Lévis and 24 in Rimouski, and applicants submit a preference order. Université Laval training locations
This is a fit decision about language, location and the selection process, not a prediction of admission. Review the category rules and each training environment before ranking locations. Université Laval MD admissions
Practice and next step
Original Videoath practice: record one response to Clinic appointment access and fairness. Use the confirmed MEM job: state a position, identify affected people, surface missing information, weigh fair trade-offs, and explain how you would communicate the decision.
Review the recording for one observable weakness—such as an unclear opening, a missing stakeholder, or a conclusion that does not follow from your reasoning. Make one adjustment, record the same answer again, and compare the two attempts. Use the recommended CASPer Essentials Path to strengthen the French Casper decision-making step that Université Laval also confirms for Fall 2027.
