Important Notes:
- All supporting documents should be submitted in advance of the suggested target date for application completion. To receive full consideration, your application and all supporting documents should be received by March 1.
- Admission decisions are usually reached within two weeks following an applicant's Interview Day and notification follows immediately thereafter.
- Questions about financial aid should be directed to Qatar Foundation. You may complete the Financial Aid Application Form directly from Qatar Foundation’s website at www.qf.org.qa
. You should submit this aid form to the Qatar Foundation Financial Aid Committee even before your Pre-medical Program decision is known. Qatar Foundation will thus be able to perform a needs analysis so that a more efficient determination of aid may be made if and when you are accepted.
Examinations:
You are required to submit results of either the SAT Reasoning Test or the ACT with Writing. It is recommended that you also submit scores of SAT Subject Tests in Mathematics (any level) and two sciences. Subject Tests are independent of any particular textbook or method of instruction, thus allowing you to demonstrate your strength in relevant subjects in comparison with students who have attended different schools and systems worldwide.
You must take tests early enough to allow submission of scores prior to March 1, the deadline for application completion. We urge you to plan your test calendar well in advance because you must register for each test about one month before the test date, and it generally takes four to six weeks after the test for scores to be reported.
