Canada · 2026 application for 2027 MD entry

USask Medicine 2027 personal statement

USask Medicine requires every MD applicant to upload a personal statement after submitting and paying for the main application. The actual question appears only as a supplemental item in the applicant account. The statement is part of MD selection and may be discussed later; it is not the separate optional Black Student Admissions Pathway essay.

Writing format

Portal-only question; PDF response under 750 words

Academic integrity

USask lists suspected AI use during the application as a possible ground for invalidating a file. Write the personal statement yourself and follow the current applicant conduct agreement.

What to prepare

  1. 1Wait for the exact question in the 2027 supplemental-items portal and place that question as the heading, as the official instructions require.
  2. 2Use only authentic personal experience relevant to the live question; the university may ask you to discuss the statement and identify someone who can verify it.
  3. 3Keep the response below 750 words and omit your name, student number, and other identifying details from the PDF.

How to approach the writing

Before you submit

The 2027-entry MD application closes October 1, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Saskatchewan time, while the personal-statement PDF is due October 15 at the same time. Read the current official applicant document and portal question; do not reuse a question from an earlier admissions cycle.
