"Greetings,

The C.M.U will receive a charter as soon as the island government of Curacao gives a license to operate in Curacao. They are in the process of obtaining one. Hopefully within a few days all the paper work will be finished.
When the CMU has these permits they can operate in the same way as all the other (off-shore) universities in the Netherlands Antilles.

Kindest regards,

then we're back to square one...this is never going to end.

Why should we have to relate anything to practising in the US? Many many doctors practice outside the US. In fact most of the doctors in the world practice outside the US. The world does not exist only between Alaska and the Florida Keys. To practice any where in the whole wide world. one has to obtain a degree from a bone fide University (or even a bogus offshore school) that has been granted a charter to operate. This whether one wants to practice in the US or not!

I disagree. The anti CMU posts should not be regarded as “beating a dead horse”, nor “wasting time on the issues over and over again”. It does serve a very useful purpose.

There are a few not so very nice people trying to start schools, and have not been completely honest with students, parents, staff or their investors, and a lot of folk have been hurt, and some have lost homes and other valuable posessions.

In the last year alone I taught 11 students who are now suffering because they allowed themselves to be lured into one of these joke schools.

It is vitally important that prospective students and thier relatives be warned very clearly about bad medical schools, or schools that fail to follow established protocols. This nonsense must stop! We can help! We must help! And I am speaking from personal experience!


Many prospective students and thier relatives do not know the ropes like we do, we need to post until problem schools go away. The best time to do this is before they get thier charter. I believe that if a school is dishonest and deceitful to attempt to operate without a charter, that if it ever does get one it will operate worse!



Our parents did not tire of telling us the same thing over and over for our good. So too we must not fail in well doing by alerting the public about bad attempts at starting med schools.
