Northern Ontario School of Medicine

The Northern Ontario School of Medicine (also known as the Northern Ontario Medical School) is a medical school created through a partnership between Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario and Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ontario. Mandated both to educate doctors and to contribute to care in Northern Ontario's urban, rural and remote communities, the Northern Ontario Medical School will have campuses in both Sudbury and Thunder Bay.

Construction on both campuses began in mid-2004, and the buildings will be completed by August 2005.

The charter class of the Northern Ontario School of Medicine will begin in August 2005; as of October 2004, over 2,000 applicants had applied. Applicants will choose their preferred campus if and when they are invited to the interview process.
