The Xavier University School
of Medicine at Aruba was founded to train students in the art of medicine using a US based curriculum.
The entire focus of our program is to ensure students receive the knowledge they need to successfully
enter residencies in the United States as competent physicians.
The biggest challenge medical students' face in medical
school is passing their United States Medical Licensure
Examinations, (USMLE Step 1 and USMLE Step 2). These
exams must be successfully completed before
applying to residency. Our basic science curriculum is
USMLE-based. The Xavier University School of Medicine
at Aruba has numerous ACGME clinical clerkships sites;
all of which take place in the United States.
While in the US, students are required to attend USMLE
board review with KAPLAN. Students are also required to
attend grand rounds, didactics and other educational
programs. Our USMLE based basic science curriculum
combined with our strong US based clinical programs,
ensures that all our students are prepared to successfully
negotiate their USMLE Step exams.

For thirty years, the United States governing medical body
has permitted citizens or residents from the United States
and Canada, who train abroad and meet the requirements,
to enter the U.S. residency training system.
Xavier University School of Medicine at Aruba's well
respected Board of Directors know what requirements are
needed for our students to readily compete for the limited and coveted residency positions
that become available. There are Residency Directors that
annually call some of our board members for possible
residency candidates. We are confident in what we do and
we are here to help you realize your dream of becoming a
physician and practicing on the United States.
