Saba University School of Medicine Board of Trustees reserves the right to change tuition and fees or to establish additional fees or charges whenever in their opinion such action is deemed necessary.

  • Students may incur additional surcharges for elective clinical clerkships as part of the Clinical Medicine portion of the program. Elective clerkships conducted at certain hospitals may require a surcharge to be paid by the student. While many elective clinical clerkship sites do not require a surcharge, those that do current range from $50 – $550 per week.
  • Before students choose clinical sites for their clinical rotations, they will be provided a list detailing all surcharges per hospital, in order to ensure that all students can make informed decisions. This list is also available for all students upon request from the Office of the Associate Dean, Clinical Medicine.
  • While Cost of Attendance budgets include an estimate for the surcharges, it is possible, based on the elective rotations selected by students, that the actual charge may exceed these estimates and thus not be included in financial aid budgets.
