Last week we welcomed 127 people to our Toronto Open House hosted by Raj Mitra, Director of Admissions and Fred Weyer, Director of Planning.
Thanks to everyone for attending, especially as the heavy rain made driving hazardous. We really appreciated you taking the time to hear about Saint James and share your future plans we us.
We would like to offer a special thanks to our two special guests, Dr. Michel Rice and Dr. Pouya Mohajer, both of whom are Saint James students and are now forging wonderful medical careers.
Our team answered many questions covering off everything from our low tuition costs to island life to residency matching. As you start your journey we hope you found the event valuable. If you have any further questions please call us on 800 542 1553.

Health care law to spur need for doctors
POSTED BY : Administrator
The Chicago Tribune reported last week (March 27, 2013) that 29 million more people will have medical insurance next year, which will therefore require an estimated 7,200 primary care physicians.
This information comes from a report by Dr. Elbert Huang, of University of Chicago Medicine, and Howard Finegold, an analyst in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
They estimate the huge increase in insured people will lead to about 26 million more doctor visits each year, creating a strain on the resources, especially in economically disadvantaged areas.
Schools like Saint James play a very important role in training doctors for the US. The current limited number of places at US schools does match the immediate and long term need. This report is further proof that our graduates are vital to the US health system.
UIC Health & Science Career Expo, April 4th
POSTED BY : Administrator
The University of Illinois at Chicago is a fantastic university in our home town (wonderful Chicago) so we are delighted to be attending the upcoming UIC Health & Science Career Expo.
UIC operates the largest medical school in the United States, and educates many fine physicians, dentists, pharmacists, nurses and other healthcare professionals.
However many aspiring doctors are looking for a more affordable option which is where we, as a Caribbean Medical School, can help. Our tuition fees are some of the lowest in the Caribbean which allow our students to follow their dream of becoming US doctors while minimizing the financial burden.
So if you are attending this event and are looking for an alternative, more affordable option, then please come and visit us.
Go Flames!
