Oceana

Has anyone heard of this school? It's in Samoa, and is apparently very new. I would especially love to hear from current students in this program. Thank you in advance.

Two possibilities here:

You may be referring to the "The Pacific Basin Medical Officers' Training Program" in the Federated States of Micronesia. Sadly, the program no longer exists. However, one may do clinical electives in the Nat Health Service Corps hospital that is there.

Yau may also be referring a new joint venture between the National University of Samoa and a Syndney medical software firm, formerly connected with IUHS, St. Kitts, to develop a medical program at NUS. I doubt the program yet exists, since nothing maybe found of it at the NUS web-site.

Thanks! I believe I was looking for the school in Micronesia. I had visited their website quite a while ago and was looking for it again. Then I chanced upon the Samoan site. I downloaded the catalogue, and found their program quite interesting. BTW, I did not find the Oceania program on the NUS website yet; it had its own site, complete with an admissions application. <a href="http://oceania.medix.com.au" target="_blank">Oceania</a> That's why I was wondering if there are any students currently enrolled.

PS - The name of the school is Oceania, not

Oceana •</blockquote>I apologize for the typo.

The program the link leads to appears to have no conncection whatsoever with the National University of Samoa.

I accidentally posted the wrong link. It should have been <a href="http://medix.com.au" target="_blank">Medix Software Systems (Australia)</a> This site seems to connect the software company, NUS, and Oceania. Sorry for the confusion.
