American International Medical University (AIMU) is an offshore medical school located on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia. It operates a School of Medicine and a School of Nursing. It partners with universities and hospitals in the United States including Washington Adventist University (WAU) in Takoma Park, Maryland for independent support programs and offers joint classes with WAU for the AIM-U Premedical Science Program on the WAU campus. Future AIM-U programs on the WAU campus may include BSN Completion and Introduction to Clinical Science, as well as the opportunity for AIM-U students to complete the WAU MBA program.[1][2]

American International Medical University located in Saint Lucia, is an independent affiliate of AIM-U International Group, one of the premier Caribbean medical schools offering courses in Medicine and Nursing.

AIM-U's curriculum and academic programs are prepared and monitored by Members / Specialists of Medical Councils, including Medical School Accreditation Approval and Monitoring Committee, ECFMG, and the Medical Council of India.

In August 2015, St. Lucia police were investigating the university along with several other offshore facilities.[3] Both Jamaican and St. Lucian newspapers reported that officials from the university were arrested[4][5] The arrest indicated that the school trade license was in question,[6] and appearances were made by the official on 20 August 2015 and 10 September 2015, which resulted with a hearing scheduled for 14 October 2015 for the charge of trade license violations.[7][8]

Those who pass the examinations are eligible according to the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates to register for and participate in the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP).[10]
