Medical School Admissions

Your Path to Medical School

Prospective students may apply for admission to SUSOM at any time throughout the year. Applicants are encouraged to submit their documents early to ensure that their files are complete for consideration.

Key application and program details:

  • Rolling admissions process.
  • Three intakes per year – in January, May and September.
  • Twenty-month Basic Science program on Saba, followed by Clinical Medicine rotations in North America.

Three Start Dates. More Ways to Begin.

SUSOM operates on a year-round schedule, with incoming classes starting in January, May and September.

We accept applications at any time throughout the year. The three-term schedule makes it more convenient to get started and allows you to complete your studies more quickly. Instead of a single summer break, you’ll have shorter breaks of two to three weeks between each semester.
