MD program at American University of Antigua

Hi guys, I'm actually a UK student studying at AUA so hopefully this info is helpful. Unfortunately, SFE does not fund studies abroad so you will need to find private funding. As you've probably already seen, AUA offer scholarships for UK students of £55,000 (or £65,000 if you have a 2:1 in your degree). This is split equally into each semester (8/9 in total) however, they gave me 75% of it split into the first 5 semesters to help out. So you end up paying about £9000 per semester (£18,000 per year). Another thing they offer is US federal funding IF you know anybody from the USA that is willing to co-sign this loan for you so this is viable if you don't have the money up-front. The final 4 semesters (2 years) you have the option of going down the Warwick route OR going to the US. Feel free to dm if you have any questions and good luck to you all

Hi, I’m wondering if anyone is thinking of applying or is already study the MD program at Antigua university?
I want to do medicine and would love to study it in the Caribbean, they do an option to transfer to Warwick med school for the last 2/3 years of the degree which is what I’d like to do.

However, i have no idea if i could finance it? The uni has scholarships for Uk students but I didn’t know if anyone has any experience/knowledge of this and could help me out so i know if i should apply?

Im currently in my third year of a medical sciences degree so i would want to start the course in August/September 2022

How is your life going there? Experience? And part time job any?

Hi, I haven't used student room in a while so I've only just seen your question. I'm just finishing up my 5th semester (BSIC) now and I've enjoyed my time here. Be prepared to study hard but it's worth it. No I don't have a job out here, I'm not entirely sure that we would be allowed to work as students on the island.
Antigua is beautiful. It's a culture shock and completely different to life in the UK but it's something you soon get used to. If you do have any specific questions, feel free to ask me
