questions

A few questions I hope you guys can answer:

What is the situation with their clinical program?

Which hospitals can 3rd year students do rotations at?

In which States is Xavier accredited (students can do residency and get licensed)?

Thanks!!

Hey...

I am really confused here...as far as I know this is how the story goes.....Couple of people who opened Xavier in Bonaire were actually with SJSM two years back. They decided to open Xavier to compete with SJSM (I call that revenge)…..but anyhow.....since I guess Xavier did not running as smooth as they though.....they have decided to open All Saints... in Aruba.....now as far as I know they are trying their best to get Canadian students enrolled with All Saints....because their head office is in Toronto, Canada and I have personally visited them (when they were running Xavier)....please correct me if any of this information is wrong.....I personally thing going to Xavier or All Saints ....is of great risk...its better to find out all the information regarding these schools and to take a trip and visit the facility before making any decision.....

Hope this helps,

Siddman

Very true......studentMD....if these people work together and open one good school or just work on SJSM .......they can do good in the long run..opening new schools is not a good idea......

just to clarify some stuff

the exdean of sjsm was a recruiter for xavier for a while...other than that there is no other link between the two schools....xavier was created by a collaboration between bonaire buisnessmen and the person who runs pgy1md....now all saints in aruba is another school all together it is being set up by that same exdean of sjsm.....so it is a whole new school altogether....xavier on the other hand is planning to open its own seperate campus in aruba...so there are two schools in bonaire....st james and xavier....and in the future there will be two schools in aruba also xavier and all saints...stop thinking of them as one......
