Saba University School of Medicine Webinars

 



My name is Lolin Feliciano, Regional Associate Director of Admissions for Saba University School of MedicineMedical University of the Americas, and St. Matthew’s University Schools of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine

Our aim is to provide a pathway forward for students interested in becoming doctors who may not have been offered a seat at US medical schools or students who choose not apply to US medical schools in order to have the experience of studying abroad.

Each of these three medical schools hold WFME recognized accreditation, and the necessary state approvals allowing our graduates to be eligible to become licensed in the United States and Canada.  Additionally, U.S. students are eligible for the same Title IV Federal Loans as students would receive by attending a U.S. medical school.  As our schools have agreements with ACGME accredited teaching hospitals in the United States, students are able to return to the US for their clinical training, often times working alongside medical students from U.S. medical programs.

We are offering the following webinars for Saba University School of Medicine:

Global Health Corps Leaders in Action + Final Days to Apply for U.S. Program

 

Dear friends,

We’re at a critical inflection point in public and global health. In just the past few months, we’ve seen the U.S. withdraw from the WHO, development aid slashed, and public health leaders sidelined for defending equity and evidence.

But Global Health Corps' (GHC1300+ health equity champions are not backing down. And neither are we.

Right now, GHC fellows and alumni are advocating for health policy change, addressing growing gaps in care, and working together to solve urgent challenges in their communities. 

This moment demands more from all of us. GHC is harnessing our proven leadership approach and 15 years of experience to:

  • Coach, mentor, train, and create spaces for our current fellows and alumni—to bolster their resilience as they navigate their careers and make tough decisions about the programs and teams they lead. 
  • Recruit and select our 2025-2026 US and Africa fellow cohorts, launching in September—to ensure young leaders have the support and skills they need to protect their communities’ health. 
  • Strengthen our long-standing partnerships with governments under pressure—helping to meet their talent needs, including leadership and management training, as they navigate delivering for their populations with fewer resources and heightened scrutiny. 
  • Expand our ecosystem and field building efforts—convening stakeholders in our countries of operation to chart a path forward in this new era and providing custom solutions to partners’ leadership and management challenges.   

We know policy will keep shifting—but adaptable, innovative and equity-driven leadership will protect and save many lives now while shaping more sustainable systems for the long haul.

With gratitude,
Heather Anderson
CEO, Global Health Corps

Opportunity to Establish The Legacy Project, Inc. Service Organization Chapter at UF

My name is Dhanush Sivasankaran, and I am the National Recruitment Director for The Legacy Project, Inc., or TLP. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that connects students with older adults in their local communities to (1) foster friendships and (2) preserve the older adults' life histories through a published book, achieving a lasting legacy.

We currently have chapters at six universities and are excited to expand our reach. We are seeking motivated students from the University of Florida to establish a TLP chapter and launch programming next fall. This is an incredible opportunity for students to:

  • Take on leadership roles
  • Gain book authorship
  • Develop valuable skills for their careers
  • Form meaningful intergenerational connections
  • Make a lasting impact on their community
No prior experience is necessary, just a genuine interest in forming intergenerational connections!

Students can also read more on our website, or watch this video to learn more about our process. If you want to look at our prior work from other schools, here are links to some of our published books: Timeless TalesSundaes and Sundays, and Connecting the Pieces of Our Lives.

Interested students should fill out this short form.

Sincerely,
Dhanush Sivasankaran
