 St. George’s pioneered the concept of international medical education and remains at the forefront of educating students to meet the demands of the modern practice of medicine.

 

The University was the first private medical school in the Caribbean, and the first to be accredited by the Caribbean Accreditation Authority for Education in Medicine and Health Professions (CAAM-HP).
