Caribbean school of medicine graduates who demonstrate exceptional academic performance, clinical skills, and professionalism, match into highly-sought after residency programs in the US. In 2020, a high percentage of Caribbean medical schools matched with an internal or family medicine residency program in the U.S and Canada.
Caribbean Med Schools open doors for individuals to obtain a quality medical education and pursue enviable careers in medicine. Medical schools in St. Kitts offer extensive clinical training opportunities due to their access to a wide range of healthcare facilities and resources. Best Caribbean medical schools provide networking opportunities through alumni connections and affiliations with hospitals and healthcare organizations.
Graduates of Caribbean med schools must be ECFMG certified in order to apply for residency and/or fellowship in the United States. Once International medical graduates obtain the ECFMG certification (Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates), they can apply for residency programs of their choosing in the US. Completing residency training and subsequentially passing the board examinations makes you fully qualified to practice medicine in the US, just like students who have graduated from American and Canadian medical schools. Thankfully, the Windsor University school of Medicine meets ECFMG requirements, which means our graduates are eligible for ECFMG certification, can take the USMLE step 1 and step 2, and apply for residencies in the U.S.
WUSOM Med graduates receive a Doctor of Medicine degree which is recognized internationally. However, licensure requirements vary in each country. Some countries may require foreign medical graduates to take additional tests before receiving approval to practice.
