Portsmouth, Dominica – The American Canadian School of Medicine (ACSOM) has achieved a significant milestone with its official recognition by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG). This recognition, made possible through the unwavering support of the Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica and the Office of the Prime Minister, marks a pivotal moment for ACSOM students pursuing medical careers.
The recognition by ECFMG allows ACSOM students to sit for the United States Medical Licensing Exams (USMLE) and participate in the National Residency Match Program (NRMP), essential steps in their journey toward medical licensure and residency placement in the United States.

Acknowledging the pivotal role played by the Dominican government, ACSOM expressed deep gratitude for the support extended by the Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica and the Prime Minister’s Office. Their assistance was instrumental in overcoming challenges and meeting rigorous international standards in medical education.
This achievement underscores the shared commitment between ACSOM and the Dominican government to elevate medical education and healthcare standards globally. ACSOM reaffirms its dedication to supporting students in achieving their professional aspirations while continuing collaboration with the Dominican government to further enhance opportunities in medical education and healthcare.
