Electives

Students from Canadian Medical Schools

Students from International Medical Schools

The University of Toronto’s visiting electives program offers clinical placements (please note that observerships, shadowing opportunities or other non-elective course related experiences are not permitted and research electives are not offered). Unofficial electives arranged directly with a supervisor outside of our formal applications and vetting process are strictly prohibited and will not be recognized by the University of Toronto.

Due to email volume, we will not respond to questions for which the answers are already provided. Thank you for your understanding and interest. We ask all students interested in visiting electives, Canadian or International, review information on the AFMC landing page including ‘Synergy’ verification and the FAQ tab.
