Individuals whose academic credentials have been determined by the Federation of Optometric Authorities of Canada (FORAC) to be substantially similar to the Doctor of Optometry program at the University of Waterloo will be allowed to register for the Internationally Graduated Optometrist Evaluating Exam (IGOEE) administered by Touchstone Institute.
IGOEE candidates will be notified as to whether they are eligible to apply to ASOPP. Meeting the minimum eligibility criteria does not guarantee acceptance into the program.
