The MOU formalized an affiliation between the University with (Saba, Netherlands Antilles), (Nevis, St. Kitts, and Nevis), and (Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands).

Jerry Wargo, executive vice-president for marketing and enrollment for Caribbean Medical Schools, shared, "I am delighted that students from the University of New Haven will now have access to our competitive programs through this partnership. Applying to medical school can be a challenging experience for many students, and this pathway allows them to have an additional option of a first-class medical education. I look forward to welcoming students, especially our first group of students, as they pursue their dreams of becoming physicians or veterinarians.”
