AUC or Saba?

[JoeBoogie]

I applied to Saba and am thinking of applying to AUC. Any advice which is more established.. and which unversity has better clinical rotations and instructors.

And even thought the word "clinical" is used, does this really belong here?

AUC is better. Go here...

for US citizens its like asking federal loans vs private loans.

Why don't you apply first. There's no point in worrying about these things if you don't get accepted. This thread should me moved and closed.

I've heard first hand that Saba students are given very little info on clinical sites while on the island. I've also heard that the clinical coordinator gives the best/better clinical assignment options to the best students. AUC on the other hand claims to have a first come first serve system when assigning clinical spots. Saba also seems to be secretive in their site locations because they fear the big 3 school will come in and take the site from them if the "word" gets around about a new clinical site. Again, I don't go to Saba so take it for what it's worth.
