Doctor of Medicine

With its dedication to a universal model of education, the School of Medicine at St. George’s University offers a comprehensive program of study to accommodate the academic backgrounds and professional aspirations of students from all over the world.

Students wishing to achieve the Doctor of Medicine degree may enter the premedical program during one of three premedical years, or directly into the four-year Doctor of Medicine degree program, which is when most students from North America begin. Students who begin their studies in the premedical program must meet the program’s academic standards to be promoted into the first year of the four-year medical program.

Students in the four-year Doctor of Medicine degree program will spend the first two years on the True Blue campus in Grenada studying the Basic Medical Sciences.  In the final two years, students complete their clinical training in one of the affiliated centers in the United States or the United Kingdom.

The School of Medicine offers an option for medical students to complete the first year of the Basic Medical Sciences on the campus of Northumbria University in the United Kingdom as part of the Keith B. Taylor Global Scholars Program. A Diploma of Higher Education in Biomedical Sciences is awarded by the School of Applied Sciences at Northumbria University upon successful completion of the first year. Students continue the second year of the medical program in Grenada and complete clinical training in one of our affiliated centers in the United States or the United Kingdom.
