Our 4-year MD program equips students to practice medicine globally, utilizing a holistic admissions approach and mirroring U.S. medical school standards. Our curriculum is designed with a spiral approach, allowing students to revisit core concepts at increasing levels of complexity to reinforce learning and mastery. As an accredited school, we are recognized for small class sizes and early clinical integration, preparing graduates for licensure in the U.S., Canada, and beyond. This innovative educational framework not only solidifies foundational knowledge but also ensures that our students are well-prepared to meet the evolving demands of the medical field. It is our mission to ensure students are well-versed in their journey to becoming licensed physicians.
