Bsap Stream: Bsap and Jump Candidates

bsap stream: There are now 15 black students in the current first-year class and Oriuwa, now in her third year, credits the BSAP for the jump, according to CTV. Candidates must meet the same requirements for grades, Medical College Admissions Test, and community involvement as any other applicants. The university responded with the Black Student Application Process in 2017, an initiative designed to boost the chronically low number of black students applying to medical school and subsequently becoming doctors. BSAP applicants must self-identify as black and submit an essay explaining why they chose the BSAP stream. It has provided a culturally safe environment for black students to be able to have their file reviewed as well as their interview integrated with individuals who are from the black community. There are no quotas for the admission of black students. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
