MEDICAL EDUCATION READINESS PROGRAM (MERP)
The Medical Education Readiness Program (MERP) is a 15-week medical school preparatory program offered to students who have been granted conditional acceptance to AUC. It's designed to provide students with additional academic preparation to foster medical school success. Although MERP is a separate program from AUC, for AUC applicants who are referred to MERP, we view it as your first step in the AUC journey.
AUC MERP PROGRAM
The MERP program is held in two locations. Miramar, Florida is just a few miles outside Miami and convenient to airports in Miami and Fort Lauderdale. MERP students in Canada can attend the program in Toronto -- classes are held at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine.
Three sessions are held each year, commencing in April, August, and December, to allow students who successfully complete the program to matriculate into the next entering class at AUC.
Students cannot apply directly to MERP. Students must be granted conditional acceptance to AUC and be referred to MERP in order to participate in the program.
