University of Health Sciences Antigua School of Medicine

Accreditation & recognition

What does the recorded accreditor evidence say?

CAAM-HP record: Accreditation denied.

WDOMS F0001902 shows ECFMG graduation years 1984–Current and a Canada Sponsor Note. Sponsor Notes address eligibility under their respective rules. Residency and licensure have separate 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?

UHSA lists a bachelor’s degree or at least 90 undergraduate semester credits, specified prerequisite courses and English fluency.

Progression and examination gates

UHSA describes two years of basic sciences in Antigua followed by two clinical years. Confirm exam thresholds, remediation and clinical-entry requirements in the current student handbook.

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: US$107,419 MD tuition in the school’s 2025/26 schedule, before fees and living costs. Request the rate for your entering cohort.

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

UHSA states that it does not participate in U.S. Title IV. It publishes Canadian school code ZPAS. Confirm programme and intake eligibility directly with the relevant Canadian student aid authority before budgeting.

Clinical rotations

Where and how are clerkships delivered?

UHSA advertises rotations in the U.S., Puerto Rico, the U.K. and other locations. Confirm the named core sites, placement commitments and terms for your cohort.

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 cohort completion, first-attempt exam and residency Match outcomes were not 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.
