UWI Medical Students Get $1.8M Boost | Barbados News

from Barbados News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Medical students across UWI campuses are set to benefit from a groundbreaking $1.8 million endowment fund, launched by the revived Barbados chapter of the UWI Medical Alumni Association. Designed to ease financial burdens, the fund will use investment returns to sustainably support tuition, course retakes, and living expenses — ensuring talent isn’t blocked by cost. While the Barbados chapter also funds alumni association operations, the endowment itself is strictly for student aid, making this a powerful step toward equitable access to medical education across the Caribbean.
