The survey team further recommends that the Division’s recognition extend only to those students who matriculate at Saba on or after January `1, 2002. It was abundantly clear to the survey team that at the time of the site visit, the school’s educational structure had been stable for approximately the last two years. Saba University had undergone considerable change in faculty and educational structure prior to 2002 and the survey team therefore cannot make any determination or recommendation regarding equivalency for that past time period. The team recognizes that its second recommendation is a departure from past Division practices. However, the survey team feels strongly that it has no factual basis for recommending a different cut-off date for accepting applicants who received their M.D. degree from Saba.

actually what pat parks has said is that retroactivity is not guaranteed and it is only given up to the point where the above were determined..i e mainly stability in faculty, school, clinicals, etc. so most if not all newer carib schools don't really qualify because they are all unstable in faculty with high turnover and tend to have campus and owner ship issues
