Paramedic Graduate applicants must submit all of the documents required for New to Practice applicants as stated above with the exception of the COPR Candidate Score Report. See below:

Applicants must upload their COPR invoice showing their name and date of exam in the Proof of Entry to Practice Exam area. Or a letter of intent with the date the graduate intends to write the COPR exam. This letter should include their name, intention, and COPR exam date.

COPR results must be sent to the College immediately following receipt by the applicant. If a Paramedic Graduate applicant fails to pass the COPR exam within 1 year of graduation in 3 attempts or less their license will be suspended. For full details see Policy 3.1
