Who regulates medical education in Aruba?

Aruba programs are not interchangeable with CAAM-HP member-state assumptions — read each school's listed accreditor.

Registry schools in Aruba include Aureus University School of Medicine and Xavier University School of Medicine. Aruba is outside the CAAM-HP member states that many students expect; check each school's listed accreditor on the registry and the agency primary page. Confirm clinical rotation countries, Title IV status, and ECFMG eligibility rules separately — accreditation alone does not answer pathway questions.

Living and studying in Aruba

Queen Beatrix International has strong U.S. leisure traffic. Aruba is generally outside the main hurricane belt but still monitors tropical systems. Confirm Dutch Aruba study permits and housing near Oranjestad with each school.

This registry does not publish dollar cost-of-living tables — use each school's cost-of-attendance disclosure and official immigration sites for figures that affect your budget.

FAQ for applicants looking at Aruba

Are all medical schools in Aruba accredited the same way?

No. Each school has its own agency rows on this registry. A country label is not an accreditation decision — open every school profile.

Does studying in Aruba mean clinical years stay there?

Often not. Many Caribbean MD programs teach basic sciences on-island and complete clinical clerkships in the United States or elsewhere — check each school's clinical notes.

Is Title IV the same for every school in Aruba?

No. Title IV participation is per school (and sometimes per campus). Use the Title IV column above and confirm on studentaid.gov.
