AUC welcomes applications from qualified candidates around the world. Our internationally recognized medical program offers a rigorous academic experience modeled after the US medical school curriculum. AUC students learn from knowledgeable and dedicated faculty members and are able to train in unique global settings. With transformative clinical opportunities in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and abroad, our students develop a complex understanding of different healthcare systems and diverse patient populations.
AUC is an international medical school, and we take great pride in building a community of students, faculty, and staff who work together in a culture of mutual respect. AUC's diverse student population offers the chance to broaden your horizons and learn about different cultures or connect with fellow students with similar backgrounds and interests.
Choosing an international medical school like AUC means you can choose to complete your clinical rotations in the United States or the United Kingdom. Either way, you can see an entirely different healthcare system in action. Given that the practice of medicine is becoming increasingly globalized, this experiential learning could help you add a valuable, broader perspective of how varying healthcare systems operate.
At an international medical school like AUC, students have ample opportunity to get hands-on experience in service learning and outreach through events like Community Action Day, where students engage with locals about ways to improve their lives and health.
AUC enrolls students in January, May, and September, allowing flexibility for when you decide to apply to medical school.

Since AUC is a medical school that accepts international students, more than 10 percent of AUC’s student body is made up of Canadian students—a number that is expected to grow as our Canadian graduates continue earning residencies and fellowships in both the United States and Canada. Applying to AUC is a very similar process to applying to a medical school in Canada and our admissions requirements are largely the same.
AUC’s clinical curriculum is comprised of 80 weeks of clinical rotations that include 42 weeks of core clerkships and 38 weeks of electives. Core clerkships are completed at affiliated clinical sites in the United States and/or United Kingdom. During your 4th year, you have the opportunity to engage in elective rotations at various sites in Canada, the United States and abroad.
