medical student from dominic republic wants to transfer out of medical schoool to U.S.A. medical school?

Most likely the answer is no.  You have to be in a acredited AAMC medical school and transfers are rare only done after the first 2 years of medical school.

Stony Brook University has a good pre-med program and also a medical school on campus.\n\nNYIT (New York Institute of Technology) has a 7 year BS/DO program where you enroll as a pre-med undergraduate and after 7 years are awarded both your undergraduate and D.O. (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine) degree.  They also have a medical school on campus, which is the reason for the joint program.\n\nHofstra University also has an excellent pre-med program, as does C.W. Post College of Long Island University.\n\nGood luck!

I applied to an osteopathic school.  Although I did end up going to an allopathic school, I do know a lot on the subject.  I had a 3.5 GPA and a 27 MCAT.  When I interviewed there a second year student told me that he had only scored a 19 on the MCAT.  \nI think that it depends an which school that you were applying to as to how competitive it is.  The school I applied to was Pikeville College School of Osteopathic Medicine in Pikeville, KY.  There are lots of options though.  One of the things that I liked about that school was that I would only have been there for two years.  Then I could have chosen to go to one of there many satellite schools (anywhere from Pennsylvania to Florida to Arkansas) or to stay there.  \nOsteopatheic medicine is a good option.  At the end of medical school you will be qualified to apply for the same residencies as an M.D.

I have not looked into Medical School of the Americas. However, I am familiar with other Caribbean programs.\n\nThe important thing to consider is the pass rate for the USMLE and rotation placement. While the Caribbean schools are set up to be compliant with US standards, you may have difficulty getting into more competitive residencies. Still, the schools are legit and if you put in the effort, you will receive a good education.

There is very limited space in Medical Schools,  if your not in the top of your class forget America,  seek the education elsewhere-   St George,   Poland  -  India-

Typically, students are admitted to medical school only after 4 years of college but there are a few early admissions. Then they spend 4 years in medical school and 3-5 years or more in residencies. They take pre-med courses in college - biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics - but may major in any subject.\n\nMedical education in the United States does not require a college degree but completion of the MCAT and the required pre-requisite courses. Compared to many other countries, medical school admissions standards in the US are slightly more subjective and include the following factors: MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test) scores, undergraduate GPA, research experience, essays, patient care in a clinical setting, and extracurricular activities. There are two types of medical schools, osteopathic offering a DO degree and allopathic, offering an MD degree. Both are very similar but Osteopathic medical schools are more holistic during the admissions process and focus less on MCAT scores and GPA than on other qualifications. As a result osteopathic students have slightly lower scores on average than the allopathic schools. In the US, admission is highly competitive with many students forced to pursue alternate degrees upon failing to gain admission to a medical school. Medical school consists of two years being spent in basic sciences, and two years spent in a clinical setting (internships/rotations). During this time, medical students are required to pass the USMLE or COMLEX Step 1 (after 2nd year), and Step 2 (just before graduation). At graduation, students can earn an MD (Doctor in Medicine) or a DO (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine). Both curricula are similar, but the DO students recieve extra training in the "hands-on" approach to patient care, with more focus on manipulative medicine and physician/patient relationship. Both are equally regarded in terms of medical licensing. After achieving a medical degree, graduates go on to complete 3-5 year residencies (the length is determined by the type of residency, for example, internal medicine is usually three years while general surgery is five or more years). Physicians may go further to complete fellowships and sub-specilizations which can take even more years.

Well it isn't so much as not wanting to be a transferred student, but you are probably on a student visa which only authorizes you to study at that one Texas university and only for your field. To switch schools will require that you get your US student authorization changed to show the new school. \n\nBecause of this, no you can't transfer to another school out of state or probably within the same state. You have to follow the authorization guidelines laid out on your student authorization paper.\n\nAs far as I know this has to be the case because I have never known a country to issue "open student permits". I know a bit about this because I am actually a US student who was an international student in Canada. The rules are very similiar.\n\nSo change your student authorization to the new out of state school and then you will be all set. \n\nHope this helps!

What country are you trying to seek medical attention?  Places like France, Northern Italy, Ireland, England, India\n\nDid you know Medical Tourism is big...especially in Europe?\n\n\nTo compare the accreditation, check out the websites I found below, because some doctors who come over here from overseas usually need to pass our medical boards, but I know they have National Schools in Europe and other places, so maybe they have the same/similar curriculum and accreditation now...I would start with these websites anyway.\n\n\nWhat's the focus, is it for surgery or other specialization, like Acupunture?\n\n\nAre you going overseas particularly for this medical reason? Is it something they won't do in the US?  Are you waiting or is it too expensive here?\n\n[SOMETHING I READ AND TO THINK ABOUT- IT'S ABOUT PS, BUT COULD APPLY TO ANY KIND OF MEDICINE]\nGetting your  plastic surgery done in another country (where costs are lower than where you live) is no longer a big deal. While I believe that some medical fraud exists in the United States and any other developed country, it is somewhat more prevalent in countries that offer cheap plastic surgery. It does not mean that you should not travel abroad for plastic surgery - it just means that you must do your homework and be careful. “It’s important to do it right with careful planning from the start. A medical traveler is almost always on a tight time schedule, with no spare hours for delays or changes,” says Julie Munro, CEO and Chief Medical Concierge of Cosmetic Surgery Travel. She also has ten excellent tips for you if you are considering  plastic surgery in a different country.\n\nHmmm...let me know if there's more info...ok?\nHTH.  God speed with your health (or loved one's).\nTake care.

I also think it is pretty rare.  It may be possible to get outside scholarships from a local source or "contest" type scholarship.  Most merit based scholarships I know are not near full tuition at all.  Every bit helps though.  Financial based aid is usually not in the form of scholarships, but loans.\n\nThe military medical program may be an option.  Also, I've seen programs (and I can not remember where online) that offer to repay your med school loans if you do residencies in understaffed areas or fields.  I'm going to look for that again

are you from the city?  as in inner city??\nif so, try Choate Rosemary Hall High School in Wallingford, Connecticut they are an awesome prep school, one of the best in the country and they offer many inner city kids full scholarships if they earn them,,,  they also love foreign students with different nationalitys,... (you say your from singapore?)\n\n\nalso some more advice..\ni had the same problem but in a way it worked out for me because i am a freshman at an amazing catholic high school but always wanted to go to one of the six figure high schools but i settled and even the catholic school with its 5 figure tuitions were too much for my family but it all worked out with financial aid and believe me if you are a brilliant as you say any school would give any amount of money to have you ... just dont give up\n\njust some words of advice :)

Ask your university, Foreign Students Association(it might not be called that at your school but a group that helps people from other countries).Or your school counselor might be able to assist you in finding out about that.
