Xpert Private High School Partnership Agreement

New pathway enhances medical doctor career opportunities for Xpert students.

Medical University of the Americas (MUA) and Xpert Private High School (Xpert), a private high school in Brampton, Ontario, are proud to highlight the establishment of a new educational pathway agreement. Excitingly, this collaboration will provide eligible Xpert graduates, who aspire to become practicing physicians, with direct entry into MUA’s 6-Year BSc/MD Program, which grants both a Bachelor’s of Science and a Doctor of Medicine degree upon successful completion of the program. 

As part of this partnership, eligible Xpert graduates who have successfully completed their Ontario Secondary School Diploma Program with a B average, and maintained a cumulative GPA of 3.0 out of 4-point scale (75%) or equivalent, will be able to join a program that helps them achieve their MD degree two years sooner than the traditional four years of undergraduate studies plus four years of medical school pathway. They will also benefit from a streamlined application review process, a guaranteed interview with the MUA admissions team and eligibility for up to $32,500 CAD in grants and scholarships. When combined with MUA’s extremely competitive tuition rates, this makes an MD education both accessible and affordable for all students.

In a shared statement, Parvinder Gadhok, Principal, and Sona Gadhok, Director, highlighted: “We are beyond excited to embark on this partnership with Medical University of Americas (MUA), which will open remarkable opportunities for students to pursue their dreams of becoming medical professionals. The pathway we have established with MUA provides a unique, accelerated route to a medical degree, offering students quality education and hands-on experience in the field of medicine. Further, as parents, we can personally attest to the excellence of these programs – our own daughter is currently completing her 5th semester at MUA, and the experience has been incredibly enriching for her. We look forward to seeing many more students thrive in this exceptional learning environment and ultimately contribute to the future of healthcare. Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress and working together is success.”

“We are thrilled to partner with Xpert Private High School to offer their students a direct pathway to a medical degree through our 6-Year BSc/MD Program at MUA,” shared Gulce Kaya, Director of Admissions and Operations, GUS Medical and Veterinary Schools. “This collaboration exemplifies our commitment to making medical education more accessible and supporting future healthcare leaders in achieving their dreams.” 

Medical University of the Americas proudly delivers medical education and hands-on training from dedicated faculty, individualized support that benefits our students both personally and academically, and a peaceful island setting where attendees can focus and take full advantage of their studies. Of particular benefit for the 6-year program participants, they will immediately begin to learn from faculty members who also teach in the MD program, which helps ensure they receive the guidance and instruction needed to achieve sustained success. We can’t wait to see them develop into practicing doctors and future health care leaders!

*To receive direct entry, Xpert graduates must submit an application, submit high school degree graduation diploma and transcripts, satisfactorily complete a guaranteed interview with the MUA admissions team, and provide two letters of recommendation and a personal statement.
