Review scope

Reviewed the regulator’s accreditation history and checked for evidence of a current MD programme.

Accreditation & recognition

What does the recorded accreditor evidence say?

CAAM-HP record: Initial provisional accreditation withdrawn.

Accreditation review scope · 2026-11-04

CAAM-HP reinstated initial provisional accreditation in October 2014 following an appeal. It withdrew that status in July 2015 after considering two progress reports. The authority found that critical issues remained and that readiness to admit a first class had not been established.

No matching World Directory Sponsor Note was verified for this Turks and Caicos record.

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.

Open accreditor evidence

Admissions

What should an applicant confirm?

The July 2015 decision addresses readiness to admit a first class. Subsequent enrolment and a current intake were not verified.

Progression and examination gates

No current MD handbook or progression rules were 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 MD 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 graduating cohort or comparable residency outcomes were verified.

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.

Evidence still needed

What this review does not establish

The regulator documents the award history and its July 2015 decision. Whether instruction subsequently began remains unverified.
