Selection Criteria
Attracting exceptional residents
CaRMS (Canadian Resident Matching Service)
To provide neurosurgical care that meets the needs of our region, the Division of Neurosurgery accepts one resident per year through CaRMS (Canadian Resident Matching Service).
Every year, our Neurosurgery Residency Program attracts excellent applicants from across Canada. To apply, you should have a good academic record as well as proficiency in subjects related to neurosurgery and a strong interest in the specialty. You will be assessed on your ability to communicate and interrelate with others, and on your work ethic, maturity and insight.
Selection policy
Preference will initially be given to Canadian medical school graduates who have not had previous post-MD clinical training. All other Canadian citizens and landed immigrants will be considered through the second iteration of the CaRMS match.
