He is a dentist and isn't eligible to license as an MD. His school is UHSA-Antigua, a correspondence internet medical school.

I am a current student at UHSA 3 year MD program. I have spoke with graduates from this program who are currently fully licensed in the US andworking. I spoke with one graduate a Dr. C in FL who stated that several graduates from his class who graduated are licensed and in practice. I also found out from NYS that the school is scheduled for a walkthrough in the early part of 2006, Februrary I think for permission to allow UHSA students to perform greater than 12 weeks rotation in NY and to be granted permission to obtain residency positions in NY. this is a very good and positive move.
I agree with you in certain respects, the school is not for the average student. The students that best fit into this program are the professionals (PA's like myself, NP's, PT's) who have had expierience in medicine. But for the new college grad it is a potential disaster. So people must make a conscious decision. I do think the school has a low overall pass rate for USMLE but again that is b/c it accepts students that are not ready for or are still immature for a program of medicine. However, I believe the ones who do pass and go on to become licensed are professionals already.

Letter of Residency Acceptance of a UHSA Graduate
Below you can view an acceptance letter of a graduated from UHSA into an Anesthesia residency program in Georgia. There are others like it but could not add all.

Az, what part of doing clinicals in a hospital is correspondence and internet? You must be confusing the basic sciences portion with the clinical sciences portion, or you are intentionally misleading the subject. Can you explain me how you can do clinicals from the internet? Please, I am very curious.

Dear Santo,

I believe that the reason you state that..."the school has a low overall pass rate for USMLE but again that is b/c it accepts students that are not ready for or are still immature for a program of medicine." is incorrect. I believe the problem is that the BASIC SCIENCE PORTION IS POOR.

If you are going to deliver the basic sciences portion online, you must be able to deliver a quality product that enables its students to effectively compete when it is USMLE time. The same is true when you deliver the course at the physical campus.

I do not have an issue with online or distance BASIC SCIENCES portion (except anatomy, intro to physical exam) as long as it is a quality program.

That said, I think IUHS as well as UHSA have a quality problem in this area.

Problems with these schools on clinicals is because of lack of staffing and having students arrange their own 'mentors'.

AZ, just answer the question, you are the one who claims that these schools are internet correspondence, giving the impression that the entire course work is done online(which is not true). I repeat my question so you can answer it, Can you explain me how you can do clinicals from the internet? Don't dance around the quesion.

Internet correspondence refers to students not being at the schools like normal medical schools. When I read that people are urged to setup their own clinicals with 'mentors' and Big Brother/Big Sisters I am equally concerned about this. I have never said clinicals are done by the internet.
