Welcome to r/CaribbeanMedSchool - A positive subreddit dedicated to those in or aspiring to attend medical school in the Caribbean, with a focus on practicing in the United States.
We will always preach the following: Try USMD/DO, reapply. If all else fails then consider Caribbean schools approved by the US Department of Education. Please note that Caribbean schools are high risk-high reward options of last resort which often don't work out. We don't encourage private loans at any cost.
