UQ Medical School admissions consultations
This August, UQ Medical School MD program Director Dr. Jennifer Schafer will be in Canada to host the admissions consultations for entry into the Doctor of Medicine program.
Dr. Schafer is a graduate of UQ Medical School. She is a general practitioner with more than 25 years of clinical experience, 15 years working with the media, and a career including medical teaching for patients, lay public, medical students, GP registrars, doctors and other health professionals, including eLearning. Her role with UQ includes leadership in the development and delivery of the MD program, particularly the Clinical Skills Program.
As the director for the medical program, Dr. Schafer will be hosting the UQ Medical School consultations in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto as part of the medical program’s admissions process.
The compulsory consultative in-person meeting with the UQ School of Medicine program director in Canada is part of the three-tiered admissions process. Along with meeting the key degree and MCAT score requirements, applicants must attend the one-on-one consultations with Dr. Schafer to determine an applicant’s suitability for the program and motivations for practicing medicine. Applicants will also have the opportunity to ask questions about the UQ Medical School program, clinicals, opportunities in Canada, licensing, internships in Australia and more. The consultations will be completed for applicants wishing to begin the program for the 2015 intake.
