Easing the Path to Medical School
Applying to medical school can be financially challenging, but the Association of Faculties of Medicine of Canada (AFMC) offers a valuable resource to help: the MCAT Fee Assistance Program.
The AFMC, in collaboration with the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), provides a Fee Assistance Program specifically for Canadian students. This program is designed to support those who may face financial barriers in their journey to medical school by offering significant financial relief for the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT).
Eligible applicants can receive several benefits, including:
Reduced registration fees for the MCAT.
Discounted rescheduling and cancellation rates.
Access to the MCAT Official Prep Online-Only Bundle, which includes a variety of study materials to help students prepare effectively.
To qualify for the Fee Assistance Program, applicants must meet specific eligibility criteria, such as providing proof of income and other supporting financial documentation. This ensures that the program supports those who need it most, fostering a more inclusive and diverse medical education environment.
