You have a Choice of Medical Schools!
CIMT College maintains articulation agreements with multiple partner medical schools. Each agreement has its own academic and admission requirements, which may include minimum GPA requirements, prerequisite-course grades, an interview, and a formal application. CIMT College staff can provide information about partner requirements and application timelines; admission is determined independently by the receiving medical school and is not guaranteed by CIMT College.

1 year — Pre-Med Diploma at CIMT College
Partner Medical School — Basic Science Program, if admitted
Clinical Rotations — subject to the medical school’s program structure
CIMT College’s Pre-Med Diploma can help prepare students to pursue medical school opportunities outside Canada through partner-school pathways. Admission pathways vary by partner institution and may include GPA requirements, prerequisite courses, application review, and interview requirements. Let us show you the pathway!
Completion of the CIMT College Pre-Med Diploma does not guarantee admission to a medical school, completion of an MD degree, residency placement, or medical licensure.
Admission to medical school, completion of an MD program, residency placement, and medical licensure are separate processes and are not guaranteed by CIMT College.

Admission Requirements
This program isn't for everyone... it is designed for someone who is highly motivated to become a medical doctor. It is intensive, and exhaustive, which we believe training should be, to properly prepare someone for medical school. The diploma provides students with a firm pre-med foundation, so when they arrive at the school of medicine, they are ready to succeed.
Admission is Simple!
- You do NOT need an MCAT
- You do NOT need a 4 year Bachelor of Science Degree
- You do NOT need an undergraduate degree
- You do NOT need to write a personal essay or gather letters of recommendation to begin your medical journey at CIMT College
The above requirements apply to admission to CIMT College’s Pre-Med program only. They do not represent the admission requirements of a medical school. Partner medical schools apply their own academic, GPA, interview and application requirements.
Start Your Pre-Med Studies at CIMT College
Applicants may begin the CIMT College Pre-Med admission process by providing the required secondary-school documentation. Admissions Advisors can explain CIMT College’s Pre-Med requirements and the separate requirements that may apply to partner medical-school pathways. If you have the desire to succeed, then we want to help you get there. Call to schedule a FREE Campus Tour today!
PROGRAM OUTLINE
General Biology
This course provides an overview of an introduction to the foundations of biology. Topics of lectures include the chemistry of life, the cell, genetics, membrane structure and function, cellular respiration, macromolecules, nutrition and digestion, photosynthesis, ecology, and more.
Medical Terminology
This course explores frequently used medical words and abbreviations, along with terms identifying major body systems in health and disease. Emphasis is placed on spelling and pronunciation in order for the student to communicate accurately with patients and other professionals in the health care field.
General Chemistry
This course provides background knowledge of the foundations of chemistry. Topics of lectures include atomic structure, theories of chemical bonding, gas laws, chemical equilibria, weak acids and bases, acid-base equilibria, thermodynamics and thermochemistry, chemical kinetics, solubility, and electrochemistry.
Calculus I
This course provides an introduction to the fundamentals of calculus. Topics of the lectures include functions and models, inverse and logarithmic functions, limits and derivatives, concavity, and differentiation.
English I
This course is designed to lay effective groundwork for becoming a better writer, including organizing your writing, and having an effective writing process. The basics will be reinforced, including parts of speech -- subjects and verbs, sentence types, pronouns, articles, adjectives and adverbs. Students learn common proofreading errors like subject-verb agreement, sentence fragments, run-ons and comma splices.
Organic Chemistry I
This course introduces students to the basic principles that govern the structure of molecules. Topics of lectures include the structures and properties of alkenes, the concept of stereoisomerism, acids and bases, alkenes, and unsaturated hydrocarbons. Students learn nomenclature and classification of organic molecules, structure and reactivity of functional groups -- hydrocarbons, alcohols, alkyl halides, alkadienes and allylic systems.
Physics I
This course provides an introduction to the fundamentals of physics. Lecture topics include an introduction to kinematics, forces, motion, and dynamics of uniform circular motion, work, energy, impulse and momentum. Students also learn about fluids, temperature and heat, rotational kinematics and dynamics.
Cell Biology and Histology
This course is designed at a pre-professional level with the aim of in-depth understanding of role of macromolecules in the hierarchy of the cellular organization. The course aims at complete knowledge of the metabolic machinery of the cell in both plants and animals. This course emphasizes evolution, organismal diversity, and genetics.
Organic Chemistry II
This course provides insight and knowledge of the chemical principles and reactions which are utilized in biochemical processes, molecular level of organization, understanding the chemistry of the carbohydrates and proteins, the basic building blocks of our body. Lecture topics also include understanding of how genes and DNA work, the role of neurotransmitters and hormones in communication, biochemistry and disease.
Physics II
This course provides a continuation of the understanding of physics. Topics of lectures include wave motions and the laws of thermodynamics, the nature and speed of waves and sound, electricity and magnetism. Students learn the different laws and rules of energy, mechanics of electric and magnetic fields, and the properties of light, reflection and refraction.
Calculus II
This course provides a continuation of the understanding of calculus. Topics of the lectures include antiderivatives and integrals, integration, differential equations, and parametric equations.
Human Anatomy and Physiology
This course is an introduction to the major concepts of human anatomy and physiology. Students gain knowledge of the structure and function of body systems and how they work together in health and disease. Topics of lectures include cells and tissues, the integumentary system, the skeletal system, the muscular system, the nervous system, sense organs, and endocrine control. Students also learn about the circulatory system, immune response, the respiratory system, the digestive system, the urinary system and reproduction.
English II
This course develops effective writing for letters, emails, and business correspondence. Students learn how to convey their message with special attention to tone and word choice. Grammar and spelling which was learned in English I is utilized in English II as students begin to craft formal and informal correspondence for an expanded range of purposes. Students learn correct medical letter format as they create messages to express sympathy, resolve a conflict, or provide reassurance. Students also create referral letters, patient termination letters, and absence letters. Attention is paid to proofreading since accuracy in medical writing is of paramount importance.
Evidence Based Research I, II and III
These three courses, one per semester, are designed to introduce the process of effective independent research. Each semester, students are given an assignment for solely independent investigation, resulting in a properly written and formatted submission. Students are required to perform in-depth research, thoroughly annotated, in order to generate an analysis on various unique topics with attention to spelling and grammar, plagiarism, and independent professional writing.
This elite program is non-vocational does not require approval under the Ontario Career Colleges Act, 2005.
