Transfer from All Saints University College of Medicine: Where to Continue Medicine in 2026

What is All Saints University College of Medicine and what does it teach in English?

All Saints University College of Medicine is a medical school in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, in the Caribbean. All Saints University opened in April 2006, and the College of Medicine in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines was established in 2011. It teaches a four-year MD and a five-year MD that includes a premedical year, in English, alongside a Bachelor of Science in Public Health.

The curriculum follows the North American model, with basic science semesters on campus and clinical clerkships afterwards. The MD includes eighty weeks of clerkship rotations at accredited teaching hospitals in the United States, the United Kingdom and the Caribbean. Teaching is organised around problem-based learning.

The All Saints University name also covers a campus in Roseau, Dominica, which operates as All Saints University School of Medicine and dates from 2006. Students of either campus are welcome to ask us about a transfer. The routes are the same.

Can you transfer from All Saints University College of Medicine to another university?

Yes. Students of All Saints University College of Medicine in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines can transfer to another medical university, whether in the Caribbean or in Europe. Medschool Experts is the leading specialist for study transfers in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and veterinary medicine, and works with the world’s largest choice of official partner universities.

What you have already completed is the currency. Semesters passed, exams cleared and credits earned are what a receiving university looks at when it decides how far into its own programme you may enter. As a rule of thumb, no more than two exams should still be outstanding, and the credits attached to them need to stay below a set maximum. That is a rule of thumb, not a wall.

We do not publish admission checklists, because they differ by university and by year. Send us your record and we check it against the partner network. You can see how that works on our services page.

Why do students transfer from All Saints University College of Medicine?

Students of All Saints University College of Medicine transfer for five recurring reasons: the total cost of the programme, a wish for an exam format and pace that suit them better, personal or organisational circumstances, a career aimed at the United States, or a career aimed at Germany. None of these is a complaint about the school. Each is a question of fit.

• Total cost. A Caribbean MD is a substantial investment, and family circumstances change mid-programme. Several of our European partner universities cost a fraction of that.
• Exam fit. Some students learn better under a different examination rhythm. Moving to a university whose format matches how you study is a legitimate reason, and we handle it often.
• Personal circumstances. Health, family, distance from home or organisational issues can make continuing in one place impractical. That is nobody’s fault.
• The United States. Caribbean medical schools are built to feed the US system through the USMLE, US clinical rotations and residency applications. Students sometimes want a different school within that same track, or the European route described further down.
• Germany. A plan that shifted towards Europe changes the maths entirely. A degree from inside the European Union, or a programme that prepares for German practice, becomes the priority.

Where can All Saints University College of Medicine students transfer to?

Students of All Saints University College of Medicine typically move in one of four directions: another Caribbean medical school on the same United States track, Mostar School of Medicine in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Faculty of Medicine Foča in Bosnia and Herzegovina for a far lower total cost, or Medical University of Varna in Bulgaria for a degree from inside the European Union.

Mostar School of Medicine deserves a separate mention for anyone who has already committed to the United States. It is the only European university that specifically prepares students for the USMLE, covering Step 1 in the preclinical years and Step 2 CK in the clinical years. Teaching happens in small groups, with a better teacher-to-student ratio than other European medical schools, and the intake is capped at 30 places per year. Medschool Experts places students there reliably and without an entrance test, for as long as our own quota allows. You can read more on the Mostar School of Medicine page.

If your plan points at Germany instead, two universities do that job well. The Faculty of Medicine Foča, part of the University of East Sarajevo in Bosnia and Herzegovina, prepares students unusually well for German practice. Medical University of Varna in Bulgaria issues an EU degree, and from Varna the final practical year can be completed in Germany through Medschool Experts. Foča offers the same. The full range of options sits on our list of partner universities, and the wider Caribbean picture is set out in our guide to study transfers from the Caribbean to Europe.

How much can an All Saints University College of Medicine student save by transferring?

All Saints University College of Medicine's total tuition is 78,275 US dollars for the four-year MD and 94,255 US dollars for the five-year MD. At the European Central Bank reference rate of 16 September 2026, that is roughly 67,850 euros and 81,700 euros. The Faculty of Medicine Foča charges 3,500 euros per year.

US dollar amounts are converted at the European Central Bank euro reference rate of 16 September 2026, 1 euro = 1.1537 US dollars. The university’s listed compulsory fees include application, enrolment, insurance, examination, registry and diploma charges.

Read the difference carefully, because it is a difference in what you buy, not only in what you pay. The Caribbean route buys proximity to the United States system, with clerkships at teaching hospitals there. Foča buys four years of medicine at roughly 7,500 euros a year all in, tuition and living costs together, and a strong platform for a German career. Neither is right for everyone. The right answer depends on where you want to work in eight years.

Which year can you enter after leaving All Saints University College of Medicine?

There is no fixed ceiling. Medschool Experts frequently achieves high placements for students leaving All Saints University College of Medicine in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, often into year four or year five. Every record is reviewed individually, and the aim is always the highest entry possible with no loss of time, or the smallest loss we can arrange.

The North American curriculum structure at All Saints University College of Medicine maps onto European programmes differently depending on how far you have come. Basic science semesters usually translate well. Clinical clerkships are assessed case by case. Send the record, and we will tell you what we see.

How does a transfer from All Saints University College of Medicine work with Medschool Experts?

A transfer from All Saints University College of Medicine runs in four steps: a free consultation about your record and your goal, a detailed review of completed semesters, exams and credits, a placement offer naming the universities that fit and the entry year each allows, and the switch itself. You stay enrolled at All Saints University until your new place is confirmed.

That last point matters more than any other. Nobody should give up a place before a new one exists. We never ask that. Marcel Kloos, who founded Medschool Experts, has placed more than 500 students, and the sequence has stayed the same throughout. You can read what that looked like for others on our student stories page.

What does a United States career need if you leave All Saints University College of Medicine?

A United States career needs the same three things wherever you study: USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK, clinical experience in United States hospitals, and an ECFMG-eligible degree. All Saints University College of Medicine in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is built around that track, with clerkships in the United States, the United Kingdom and the Caribbean. A transfer only makes sense if it keeps that track intact.

Two routes keep it intact. The first is another Caribbean medical school on the same model, which we will name once we have matched it to your record and confirmed the fit. The second is Mostar School of Medicine in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the only European university that prepares specifically for USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK. Thirty places a year. Small groups, and a lower total cost than a Caribbean MD.

We do not publish residency outcome statistics for any school, our own partners included, unless the school publishes them itself with the year attached. Ask us in the consultation and we will tell you what is documented and what is not.

When should All Saints University College of Medicine students start planning a transfer?

The best moment to start is as soon as the question appears, which for most students of All Saints University College of Medicine is somewhere between the second and the fifth semester. Earlier means more options and cleaner credit recognition. Later is still workable, particularly for students already in clinical semesters, but the number of universities that can take you narrows.

Two practical points. Semester boundaries matter, because most receiving universities take transfer students at defined intake points rather than continuously. And a record with two outstanding exams is easier to place than one with five, so clearing what you can before you apply is usually worth the effort.

Asking costs nothing. A consultation is not a commitment, and plenty of students finish the conversation having decided to stay exactly where they are. That is a legitimate outcome too, and we say so when we think it. When a move is the better plan, we say that instead — and then we organise it. Book a free consultation whenever you are ready.
