Doctor of Medicine Program – (4-Year MD Program)

Caribbean

    Country: Caribbean

    Duration: 4 Years Plus

    Program Level: Doctorate

Overview

The MD program at MUA is the most affordable of the top seven Caribbean medical schools approved to participate in the U.S. Federal Financial Aid programs. MUA is known for its intentionally small class sizes, highly credentialed faculty with a passion for teaching, and recognized accreditation, which enables our graduates to be eligible to practice in all 50 states of the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom and other countries.

MUA offers a comprehensive 10-semester program for earning an MD.

The foundation of any medical school curriculum is the five semesters of basic sciences. This part of the MUA curriculum takes place on our campus in Nevis.

At the completion of your basic sciences study, you will take your first—and in some ways your most important—licensing exam, the USMLE Step 1. The clinical staff at MUA will work with you to create an individual academic plan for passing this important exam.

Students then return to the U.S. or Canada to complete five semesters of clinical rotations at teaching hospitals that are affiliated with MUA.

Recommended Option for Missing Prerequisites

If you find yourself without most or all of our recommended courses, consider our 8-month online Pre-medical Master’s Program, which awards an MSc in Biological Science. Students who successfully complete the program earn automatic admission to MUA’s MD program.

*These listed courses are standard pre-medical prerequisites for admissions, with individual exceptions considered.

English Proficiency

Since English is the language of instruction at MUA, it is important that applicants be prepared to understand the curriculum and be able to communicate effectively. Applicants whose principal language is not English may be required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or another comparable exam.
