Universidad Católica Tecnológica del Cibao School of Medicine

Accreditation & recognition

What does the recorded accreditor evidence say?

CAAM-HP record: Not accredited by CAAM-HP.

WDOMS F0001835 lists ECFMG graduation years 1984–Current and a Canada Sponsor Note. Verify the exact degree, graduation year and jurisdictional requirements.

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?

The university lists secondary-school records and other admission documents. Applicants with foreign secondary-school studies should verify the Dominican recognition requirements and medicine-specific selection steps.

Progression and examination gates

The December 2025 academic regulations require completion of each medicine phase before moving to the next, from premedicine through basic sciences, clinical sciences and internship. Confirm the rules for your intake.

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: The university’s payment page lists RD$950 per medicine credit. A full programme total was not 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.

The published table separately lists a RD$6,200 main-campus academic membership charge. Confirm which charges recur, the intake’s credit load and any programme or international-student rates before budgeting.

Financing: distinguish eligibility from availability

Current U.S. federal Direct Loan and Canadian government aid eligibility for this programme was not verified.

Clinical rotations

Where and how are clerkships delivered?

The academic regulations distinguish clinical sciences from the rotating internship. Current rotation assignments, sites and supervision were not independently 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?

Comparable entering-cohort 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.
