Additional clarification
We recommend that you contact your referees two to three weeks before you are ready to apply to confirm if they are willing to provide you with a letter of recommendation and to get their email address and current job title. The information about the individuals providing letters of recommendation is entered through your , the student portal.
- Once the referees鈥 names and contact information is added in your portal, an email which will include the procedure on how to fill out the electronic recommendation form will be sent from the University (it may take 1-3 business days). They will have 10 business days to complete the form.
For example, a referee could be a professor, a thesis director, an employer or any other person who can assess your aptitude to pursue Graduate Studies.
Let the individuals know that the University of Ottawa鈥檚 letter of recommendation process is done online and is entirely confidential. They will receive a link by email to the secure online system.
It is helpful to provide the individuals with a deadline in order to ensure they submit their letters of recommendation before the application deadline. Your application will not be considered complete (and thus not evaluated) until all your letters of recommendation are received.
Letters of recommendation must be in English or French.
We do not accept letters of recommendation from family members, friends, students, former or current classmates, employees or teaching assistants.
It鈥檚 best to provide academic or work email addresses for those providing letters of recommendation. Email address from Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc. are discouraged.
This process is completed within a secure portal where your personal information will remain protected and accessible only by authorized personnel, ensuring the confidentiality of your recommendation letters.
In your application, you must declare/submit an official academic transcript from each postsecondary establishment that you have attended, including regular programs (whether completed or not), exchanges, letters of permission, online or correspondence courses, courses taken as a special student or visiting students, etc.
To accelerate the admission process, an electronic copy of your transcripts (including the grading scale with passing mark) can be temporarily accepted until we receive your official copies. Please upload them in your portal in your uoDoc application.
- If admitted to the program, you will need to request the host institution to directly provide us with the official document. For this purpose, a transcript is considered official only if it is received either:
- by mail (regular mail is fine) in a sealed university envelope to: Faculty of Medicine, University of Ottawa, Room 2016 - 451 Smyth rd, Ottawa, ON, K1H 8M5
- electronically from the host institution and must be sent directly to [email protected]
- in person: the official document must still be in the official sealed envelope All transcript information is confidential; envelopes must not be opened.
- If the transcript and degree certificate are not in English or French, a certified translation (signed and stamped/sealed) must be submitted.
- WES transcripts are not recognized by our office
- All transcripts will be verified for authenticity.
- Transcripts must show all courses, all marks, and the awarding of degree(s).

We have gathered tips to help you with your supervisor search.
If you鈥檙e applying for the MASC in Anatomical Sciences Education or for the Master in public health (MPH) or the , a supervisor is not required.鈥&苍产蝉辫;
The hardest part of the application process is finding a supervisor.鈥 We recommend finding a supervisor early since you must find a professor who has agreed to act as your thesis supervisor and who has supervisory privileges within your primary department of study鈥 (BMI = Biochemistry and Immunology, CMM/NSC = Cellular and Molecular Medicine, or EPI = Epidemiology) to complete the admission process.鈥&苍产蝉辫;
鈥疘f you are applying to a specialization, the professor must have supervisory privileges in both disciplines.鈥&苍产蝉辫;
