Going to Med School with a Family

Relocating a family presents its own challenge when attending medical school. Get advice ahead of your move and support on adjusting to life on the island.

 

 

A Family-Friendly Medical School

Here at AUC we are a family-friendly medical school that welcomes students with families to the island of St. Maarten. The Spouses Organization (SO) serves as our foremost resource for families at AUC.
