Prospective Students | American University of the Caribbean

The list of affiliated hospitals.

St. Matthew's University | School of Medicine | Curriculum

the list of affiliated hospitals.

Now look at the lists for Illinois. SMU has so many more for rotations, and AUC is stuck with one(for IL). how does this work for elective rotations? Can we only work with Mt.Sinai (for auc students)??? Thats the only thing that worries me. SMU has access to Rush, etc, and I think thats really neat (having so many options nearby). But then, SMU isn't licensed in all 50 states

What exactly worries you.......

So university hospital accept FMGs for rotations?

Those are hospitals that AUC is affiliated with which mean they we can do rotations at those locations.

It is a gamble. If you want to ultimately work in IL then do your time where a school that is licensed in all 50 states can rotate in. If not and you want to rotate near your hometown but do not want to work there then go somewhere like SMU.

You can't expect every school to have a presence in every state. What about the loan situation? Not to say SMU is a bad school, but aren't there some problems with loans at this point? AUC has been around for a long time. G

DISCLAIMER: I have no financial stake in ValueMD, or any medical school.

What worries me is that this is your criteria when SMU has a whole truckload of issues that I wouldn't have time to list in one night.

auc= licensure in all 50 states.....smu= not so much

so in most people's book, there is no comparison.
