State-of-the-Art Campus

UMHS has one of the most modern campuses in the Caribbean. It was modeled after U.S. medical schools, and is comparable in virtually every way — from the cutting-edge anatomy and human simulation labs to the robust library and learning resource center. Equipped with the latest technology, the campus provides an outstanding learning environment for future doctors.

World-Class Academics

UMHS is fully accredited by the Accreditation Commission on Colleges of Medicine (ACCM), which is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education through the National Committee on Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation. ACCM has adopted U.S. standards of accreditation both as written and applied. This is one of the highest standards of accreditation an offshore medical school can obtain.

Personalized Medical Education

We are committed to delivering the support you need to become a successful doctor. Thanks to our small class sizes and low student-to-faculty ratio of 8:1, you’ll have ample opportunities to work one-on-one with our experienced, highly-credentialed faculty.

Exceptional Residency Placements

Our graduates have obtained premier residency positions in the U.S. and Canada. In fact, nearly 120 of our students matched with their program of choice in our 2018 graduating class alone.

Affordable Tuition

The tuition at UMHS is considerably less expensive than you’ll find at other leading Caribbean medical schools. To make the experience even more affordable, comprehensive financial aid options are also available for those who qualify.

QUESTIONS?

Enrolling in medical school is a major commitment, and doing so in a foreign country may seem especially daunting. We’re here to help. Please don’t hesitate to inquire about everything from visas and housing options to accreditation and graduate career placements.
