If you receive funding under the Vision Program, you must apply to medical school within three years and you cannot reapply to the Vision Program again within this period. If you do not apply to medical school within three years, you will need to reapply to the Vision Program.

For applicants who apply to the Vision Program more than once, the limits on standardized exam coverage and associated materials are: 

1. The MCAT exam will be covered by a maximum of two times;
2. MCAT prep materials, up to a $300 value, will be awarded once;
3. The Casper exam and application fees will be awarded a maximum of three times each.

No, but, you must apply to the Doctor of Medicine program within three application cycles to receiving funding.

Example:

Khalid applied to the Vision Program in Fall 2026 and qualified. In order to receive funding, he must apply to medical school by the summer of 2029 (application cycle 2029-2030, Class of 2034); if he does not, he must reapply to the Vision Program with a new application to determine if he qualifies.

No. The Vision Program only removes the financial costs incurred with preparing to apply and the application costs. Applicants must submit a separate application to medical school during the application window for the year in which they want to start studies. Memorial University uses a holistic review process to appraise applications and the unique experience of recipients of the Vision Program will be considered under this process.
