CURRICULUM
 

The University of Sint Eustatius offers a comprehensive M.D. degree program, including training in the Basic Sciences and in Clinical Education. Depending on qualifications, a student may enter at either of these levels of training. Since the University of Sint Eustatius offers 1 ½ academic years (3 terms) within one calendar year, students actually complete the programs in less calendar time than traditional 4-year medical programs in the U.S.

Basic Sciences Program
The University offers a Basic Sciences curriculum to qualified students. Students who successfully complete this phase of training and subsequently pass Step I of the United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE) then transition into the final phase of medical training, the Clinical Education program.

Clinical Medicine Program
In the Clinical Education program, students complete 72 weeks of clinical rotations at hospitals in the U.S. (or the U.K., at the student’s preference). The University has over 60 high-quality clinical sites in dozens of U.S. states, Canada and the U.K. Students seeking transfer directly into the Clinical Education program must pass the USMLE Step I prior to starting clinical rotations. The Dean of Admissions, in consultation with the Deans of Basic Sciences and Clinical Education, will determine the suitability of an applicant’s pre-clinical preparation for the Clinical Education program.
