The following statement applies to all students enrolled in the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry.

Students in the Schulich School of Medicine & Dentistry will be required to care for persons with infectious diseases (including Hepatitis B and HIV) should they be assigned to them.

Documentation of immunization and tuberculin status will be required.
