How to Find a List of Medical Schools in the Caribbean

There are many medical schools in the Caribbean. Lists of them are readily available on the Internet. However, you need to dig a little deeper to determine if graduating from your school of choice will make you eligible to practice in the state you wish to reside, since not all Caribbean medical schools will facilitate licensing in all 50 states. You'll see that some schools are more expensive than others, while others are bargains compared to the cost of medical school in the U.S. Research is necessary to determine the best quality institutions.

      Apply to the American University of the Caribbean if you want to attend an excellent medical school that's fully accredited by the Accreditation Commission of Colleges of Medicine (ACCM). Located on St. Maarten, it's a good choice for Americans who can't secure one of the 17,000 annual openings at U.S. medical schools, for which 50,000 students typically apply.
