What is the Gateway Medical Program?*


The Gateway Medical Program is a 15-week medical school preparatory program offered online to students who have been granted conditional acceptance to Saba University School of Medicine (Saba). Gateway is offered three times per year, beginning in January, May, and August. Upon successful completion of Gateway, students join the next entering Saba medical school class. Students may attend Gateway on a part-time basis such that they complete the program over two 15-week semesters. Students may also attend asynchronously to allow for convenient attendance for students living in a variety of time zones.
