The school is the oldest private medical school in the Caribbean and founded by Charles R. Modica on July 23, 1976. Because of its size, the school placed more doctors into first-year US residency positions than any other medical school in the world between 2011 and 2012.[1] It was rated by The Princeton Review as one of the "Best 168 Medical Schools".[2] MissionThe stated mission of St. George's University Doctor of Medicine degree program is to "provide an international, culturally diverse environment in which students learn the knowledge, skills and attitudes required for postgraduate training in the health profession, while being inspired to develop compassion, curiosity, tolerance and commitment to patients and society, dedication to life-long learning and an understanding of the vital role of research in healthcare."[3] AdmissionsThe average undergraduate G.P.A of accepted students is 3.4 and the average MCAT score is 26, compared with 3.69 and 31 respectively in the United States.[1] The medical students at St. George's come from many universities in the United States and around the world. The New York Times refers to St. George's as a "second chance" medical school, because many of the students attend after they are unable to gain acceptable to a US medical school.[1] Only 65% of students that enrolled in 2009 graduated within 4 years, although another 20% graduated after 5 years.[1] AcademicsWhile traditional US-based medical schools do not pay hospitals to accept their students for clinical rotations, St. George's has signed a contract to pay more than $100 million to hospitals to accept their students.[1] Because of its large student body, SGU is the top provider of doctors into first-year US residencies for the last eight years with more than 935 placements in 2018. While two-thirds of its students are US citizens, its student body and faculty represent over 140 countries, and its graduates practice in more than 50 countries worldwide. As part of its focus on a global curriculum, students in the Keith B. Taylor Scholars Program pathway, or the traditional pathway can take medical selectives in Prague, Thailand, India, Honduras, Kenya and Sweden, as well as health practica throughout parts of Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas, while also completing years three and four of medical school in the United States, the UK or Canada. Tuition at St. George's runs more than $250,000.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web|last1=Anemona|first1=Hartocollis|title=Second-Chance Med School|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/03/education/edlife/second-chance-med-school.html|publisher=The New York Times|accessdate=24 August 2015}} {{coord missing|Grenada}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Stoll|first1=Malaika|title=The Best 168 Medical Schools|date=2012|publisher=The Princeton Review|pages=202–203|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=DF9qMTJDIjQC&pg=PA468&dq=%22St.+George's+University+School+of+Medicine%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CDYQ6AEwAWoVChMIpd68gczCxwIVT3uSCh3pcwcs#v=onepage&q=%22St.%20George's%20University%20School%20of%20Medicine%22&f=false|accessdate=24 August 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web | title = St. George's University School of Medicine Mission Statement | url = http://www.sgu.edu/school-of-medicine/mission-statement.html | accessdate = 2015-08-24}} 2 : Medical schools in Grenada|1970s establishments in Grenada |
