ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Please continue to visit the AFMC Student Portal for future updates regarding application timelines, eligibility criteria, required documents, policies and fees. Students will be able to see availability of elective opportunities before submitting an application and paying the fee. Please keep in mind that an indication of availability does not guarantee a confirmed elective.

Elective Availability: uOttawa’s Electives office does not track availability of any elective opportunity and is unable to provide you with an estimation of the availability. Individual departments set their own capacities. If you are interested in a visiting elective at uOttawa, please submit an application via the AFMC Student Portal. An indication of availability on the portal does not guarantee you will be offered an elective opportunity, as there are system delays in changing capacity.

Change Request: No changes will be made to any confirmed electives or electives that have been offered to you. No changes will be made to an elective request that has been declined by the department. In these situations, you must cancel and submit a new application. If you have a pending request, you may contact the Electives Office at uoportal@uottawa.ca to make a change request; however, a change in specialty cannot be facilitated in the portal.

Refund Policy: uOttawa does not offer any refunds.
