Accreditation & recognition

What does the recorded accreditor evidence say?

CAAM-HP record: Accreditation withdrawn.

Accreditation review scope · 2026-11-04

CAAM-HP granted provisional accreditation in 2018, placed the programme on probation in July 2019 and withdrew accreditation in November 2020 after the school did not respond to a request to prepare for a full site visit.

WDOMS F0000976 lists ECFMG Sponsor Note coverage for graduation years 2004–2025 and a Canada Sponsor Note. Graduates should verify credential documentation and destination requirements directly.

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?

WDOMS lists the MD as discontinued. Its record reports that local registration expired in March 2023 and that the institution was applying for reregistration. A reopening was not verified.

Progression and examination gates

Former students should confirm the custodian of transcripts and clinical records with the relevant authority. The current custodian was 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 applies to the discontinued MD.

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 applicant funding is not applicable to the discontinued MD. Historical government aid participation was not verified.

Clinical rotations

Where and how are clerkships delivered?

CAAM-HP’s 2018 site visit included clinical affiliates in Baltimore. Former students should verify their specific rotation dates, sites and records.

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?

Comparable historical completion and residency Match rates were not 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.

Evidence still needed

What this review does not establish

The current transcript custodian and historical outcome rates were not verified. This record concerns International American University College of Medicine in Vieux Fort.
