shakirayang (Alumni) I'm in my second semester at St. Martinus and I'll give you an honest picture. The class is small which has real advantages for how much attention you get from professors.
krishnacollins (Alumni) The curriculum is real and the workload is comparable to what friends at larger Caribbean schools are dealing with. Don't let the smaller school size make you think it's somehow easier.
pli (Student) krishnacollins (Alumni) covered the main points well. Faculty are generally approachable and genuinely interested in students succeeding. That's one of the real upsides of a smaller school. The professors know your name and that matters.
zsharma (Alumni) Administration is one area that could improve. Communication about schedules, tuition, and logistics takes longer than it should. Build in extra time for any administrative process.
petitk (Alumni) The island location on Sint Maarten means you have access to more amenities than students at smaller island schools. That helps with the mental health side of being far from home.
lius (Alumni) If you're thinking about SMU go in with realistic expectations and a serious work ethic. It can work as a path to a medical career but it requires the same commitment as any other Caribbean school.
