Get an official medical accommodation letter for Red Deer Polytechnic. Same day delivery from a CPSA-registered physician. No clinic visit needed.
Red Deer is home to Red Deer Polytechnic (formerly Red Deer College), which serves over 7,000 students at its Main Campus and Downtown Campus. Located midway between Calgary and Edmonton on the QE2 corridor, Red Deer students have fewer local healthcare options than their counterparts in the larger cities. Walk-in clinic wait times in Red Deer can be significant, especially during exam season, and the nearest major university health centre is over an hour away in either direction. MedLetter provides same day physician documentation for RDP students without the need to visit a clinic.
Red Deer has approximately 7,000+ post-secondary students across multiple institutions. During exam season, demand for accommodation letters surges significantly.
Red Deer has fewer walk-in clinics than Calgary or Edmonton, and RDP's Student Health Services has limited capacity. During exam season, wait times increase significantly. Get your accommodation letter online and skip the clinic wait.
Red Deer Polytechnic uses a Laserfiche online portal for all deferral applications. This digital system streamlines the process but still requires supporting medical documentation. Students must upload a physician's letter that clearly demonstrates serious illness or extraordinary circumstances beyond their control. MedLetter's physician letters are formatted as PDF documents that can be uploaded directly to the Laserfiche portal.
RDP offers both deferred exams (for students who missed the original exam) and supplemental exams (for students who failed). These are different processes with different requirements. A medical accommodation letter supports a deferred exam application. If you are unsure which applies to your situation, contact your program coordinator.
Red Deer's healthcare system serves a population of over 100,000 but has fewer walk-in clinics and urgent care options than Calgary or Edmonton. During exam season, when students need medical documentation most urgently, clinic wait times can be 3 to 5 hours. Red Deer Regional Hospital's emergency department is not appropriate for obtaining medical documentation for academic purposes.
MedLetter bridges this gap by providing same day physician documentation online. Red Deer students can get their accommodation letter from home, their dorm, or anywhere with internet access, without competing for limited clinic appointments.

Supplemental exams at RDP are different from deferred exams. Supplemental exams are available for students who failed the original exam, while deferred exams are for students who missed the exam due to illness. A medical note supports a deferred exam application, not a supplemental exam.
