Canada Sponsor Note
Degree title and graduation-year requirements apply.
Know your pathway. These notes apply to GAU’s medical (MD) programme. Eligibility is assessed individually. Sponsor Notes do not constitute accreditation or confer a licence to practise; certification, residency and licensure require additional steps.
In the World Directory, search for Georgetown American University School of Medicine (FAIMER School ID F0003427) and open Sponsor Notes. Check the current notes and applicable graduation years before applying. “Current” describes the listing at the time you check it and does not guarantee coverage of a future graduation year.
For Canada, review the MCC’s medical-school and degree requirements. For the United States, review the USMLE eligibility rules. State and provincial regulators set further requirements for medical practice. Speak with GAU about your study plans →
