In Canada, a medical school is a faculty or school of a university that trains future medical doctors and usually offers a three- to five-year Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) or Doctor of Medicine and Master of Surgery (M.D., C.M.) degree. There are currently 17 medical schools in Canada with an annual admission success rate normally below 7.5%.[1] As of 2021, approximately 11,500 students were enrolled in Canadian medical schools graduating 2,900 students per year.[2]
Faculties of medicine at the University of Manitoba, McMaster University, and the University of Toronto, in addition to training would-be physicians, offer a post-entry professional two-year bachelor or master degree to train physician assistants.[3]
