Trust me. Been there, and would not wish it on anyone. Taught myself everything. Coming into the real world and doing rotations in the US, the deficit in your learning becomes VERY VERY clear. There are multiple issues with the school, including administration that are very sneaky and often, flat out lie and scam you for additional money. However, I'm sure many Caribbean schools have this same issue. Bottom line is, with regards to education, which should be of PRIMARY IMPORTANCE, Windsor is far below any standards.

Any one who is addicted to this forum and has read the threads on Windsor on this forum over the course of the last five years, can see that JELLY is saying the same that has been said about Windsor throughout. There is a good reason why folk don’t flock there, except MUA dropouts or those who became disenchanted with IUHS in earlier times.

Jelly's post is consistent with the opinions I have been reading about Windsor over the last five years. They also mesh with and are explained by that :infamous contract" to which I have alluded earlier.

And No--- I do not or have never worked for AUA.

I've never posted on this website before because this is about the 4th time I've ever visited it in the last 4 years.
I finished my time at Windsor, partly becuase the only options for transferring involved going back and repeating a few semesters or courses (because Windsor's standard for passing was lower than virtually every other school's).

Rather than further justifying why I think the school is not a good choice, etc etc..I think I'll let my initial reply to the threat hold its own.... On a site like this where multiple users are probably employees of the various institutions, questioning credibility of any comments is understandable. However, I have nothing to GAIN from advising ppl against going there. I am not encouraging going to any other school in return.
As for taking the time to read my reply, I thank you for your interest. Best of luck!

ok, i understand your sentiment. good luck as well .

You don't make sense. Its people like you who don't have concrete evidence and nothing intelligent to say that write down crap and ruin it for everybody. Come back to me when you have something interesting to say.

What doesn't make sense about AUA that I have said, explain?

If they are lying and scamming people and not being truthful about certain things, how come they have been around for 10 + years?

Wouldn't the American gov't shut down the school if they are scamming students and stealing their money?

A better question is since they have been around for 10 + years why is it that AUA is superceding it? Since AUA is a relative todler to Windsor in age, why is it better attended despite all the apparent freebies that Windsor is giving to attract students that you harp about- free books, free meals free this free that?

Since AUA is a relative todler to Windsor in age, why is it a relative giant to Windsor in eveery other respect? Because the administration is better, and the students prefer it despite the lack of freebies etc


UHSA and Spartan have been around as long as SGU & Ross. Where do the students go? SGU & Ross. And for similar reasons.

RE

The American government can not shut down any offshore school even if they are scamming students and stealing their money. But we know that you know that right?
You only spewing out rhetoric here right? LOL

Finally, we get some more insight into this. Are you sure you're not working for AUA? LOL. I like how you are giving me more credit than I deserve....STOP! LOL. For all you know I could be a deranged lunatic who knows nothing.....I'm kidding people, KIDDING! Man I love these message boards.

Anyways, I wasn't really harping on the freebies and I just wanted to point out that its a good marketing technique to try and get more students to come to your university and its also a benefit to students to provide free meals, books, and housing with an affordable tuition. Most students wanting to go to medical school are taking out huge loans or working extra hours to save up for med school (including me). By eliminating some of the extra costs and making tuition affordable is a benefit to students. Also, some of Windsors after school programs also looked interesting. Bottom line, I'm only trying to point out what I see could be as a benefit to prospective students like myself. I'm sure the admin is better at AUA but I really haven't had an opportunity to see it first-hand. Im sure somebody can give me some insight and some examples as to why the admin is better. I know there was one person who posted on this board saying that windsor admin was asking prospective profs to pay to teach at the school as well as asking the same prof to teach all the subjects. If that is the case, is there any prof out there? A person was supposed to "pm" me with the proof but they didn't!

My view is, when you make comparisons you have to look at all aspects and then make a conclusions based on that. Like I said b4 I'm trying to look at the whole picture.

You are so right in saying that Spartan and UHSA have been around just as long as Ross and SGU but Ross and SGU (SGU can be compared to some of the top American med colleges in my opinion) are far more superior. They have a way better administration but I'm sure that's not all. They have a better curriculum with more qualified professors and more programs to offer to their students.

If I could have gotten into SGU I wouldn't have started this thread.


For the record I have not made my decision yet!!!

What violations?

[Genossa maximillian]

This thread has become redundant, nobody is convincing anybody and the discussion has become sterile. It should be closed before it gets too personal, like it happened in the Obama and CMU thread. Just my opinion.

Also, why not move the whole thing to the Windsor forum?
