Commonwealth University College of Medicine

Accreditation & recognition

What does the recorded accreditor evidence say?

CAAM-HP record: Candidacy withdrawn.

U.S. pathway: No ECFMG Sponsor Note appears in the school’s WDOMS listing. Under current ECFMG rules, students and graduates are ineligible to apply for ECFMG Certification without this note. Canadian pathway: No Canada Sponsor Note appears in WDOMS. Verify eligibility with the intended provincial or territorial medical regulatory authority before enrolling.

This status is one layer of the decision. Applicants should also inspect the school’s World Directory Sponsor Notes, current ECFMG eligibility, and every state or provincial licensing rule that applies to their intended career path.

Admissions

What should an applicant confirm?

World Directory status: Listed as currently operational (FAIMER ID F0007248), with four- and five-year MD tracks. Current intake, local authorization and contracted clinical sites remain unverified.

Progression and examination gates

A current programme handbook and progression rules were not verified.

Confirm prerequisite credits, MCAT policy, transfer-credit limits, language requirements, start dates, interview process and any preparatory or extended track attached to an offer. MDCaribbean does not infer an “acceptance rate” when a school does not publish an auditable denominator.

• Ask whether acceptance is direct to the MD program or conditional on a pre-matriculation course.
• Request written progression and dismissal standards before paying a non-refundable deposit.
• For Canadians, verify provincial student-aid and bank medical-line-of-credit treatment separately.

Tuition & financial aid

The published price is not the total cost.

Recorded published figure: No current tuition schedule verified.

Build a term-by-term model that adds mandatory fees, health and evacuation insurance, books, housing, flights, clinical relocation, exam charges and financing interest. A repeated term or delayed rotation can materially change the final debt.

Financing: distinguish eligibility from availability

Current programme-specific funding was not verified.

Clinical rotations

Where and how are clerkships delivered?

Current clinical sites and placements were not verified.

Ask for the current core-site list, whether the school schedules every core rotation, typical wait time, expected relocations, housing responsibility, supervision model and any site surcharge.

Residency outcomes

What does the reported result actually measure?

No comparable cohort completion or residency outcomes were established.

Placement counts, first-time attainment and multi-year placement rates answer different questions. The most useful disclosure includes the entering cohort, attrition, on-time graduation, applicants to residency, matched applicants, timing, specialty and whether SOAP or post-Match placements are included.
