Ross Med saw something in me that other schools didn't. They saw more than my GPA. They saw more than my resume. They saw the potential. And I really appreciated that because without Ross Med, I wouldn't be the doctor that I am now.

What Ross has that makes it so special—that other Caribbean schools don’t have—is that we have a very strong community here. When one person struggles, we all struggle; we feel what other people feel. We’re all in this together.

An admissions committee would look at your file, close it, and move on,” this person told her. “You’d spend the next few years applying, and in the meantime, you’d need to get a job in a lab or some kind of trade showing you’re doing more of the sciences.

Open the Doors to Residency
Hear From MERP Students
Without MERP, I might have failed my first semester because I didn’t have the discipline. I now have a foundation I can build upon. But, even more important than the basics, MERP helped boost my self-confidence. I realized that achieving my dream starts with succeeding in medical school and that it’s as much about hard work than it is working smart.

I think that Ross did an amazing job preparing me for what’s coming. I am prepared to go and start my residency. The doctors that I worked with in the clinics would say, ‘How do you know so much?’ And it's because I was really prepared.
