Columbus Central University may have certain advantages over other medical schools because of its 12-year track record of excellent performance. We constantly strive to create the best environment possible for medical education. Our exceptional instructors and staff provide individual attention to each student.
We have created a U.S.-based curriculum and recruited the most competent faculty members in order to prepare students to pass the United States Medical Licensure Test (USMLE) on their very first attempt.
Every semester, visiting instructors from US medical schools instil the highest educational standards. The school also provides a USMLE Refresh Course in Medical Science at its Belize teaching facility to help students get ready for this crucial exam.
CCU offers students a wide range of clinical clerkships opportunities with over 300 preceptors in 67 hospitals and training facilities across the nation.
Our university provides an affordable cost of attendance and convenient access to financial assistance for all students, making it a viable option for those who are interested in pursuing a medical education at CCU.
Belize is a great place to study because it is located outside of the hurricane belt, has a nice climate, convenient transportation, and is economically and politically stable.
Columbus Central University is located in a top-notch complex that meets US standards and offers a variety of amenities, including 12 classrooms, laboratories, a computer lab, library, and student lounge. The campus is secure, with round-the-clock security personnel and digital surveillance to ensure the safety of students and staff. The campus is designed to promote effective teaching and learning, as well as enhance the quality of life for medical students, with an annual capacity of up to 2000 learners.
CCU offers 30 affordable dormitories within a 20 minutes’ walk from the campus, equipped with internet, cable TV, utilities, air conditioning, and kitchen appliances which is unique among Caribbean medical schools.

We offer various digital tools to our students such as online Question Banks, Teacher Evaluation Forms, Live Lecture Streaming, EduDesk, SIS, and PubMed. Our MYCCU platform allows students to manage their studies more efficiently by checking grades, paying tuition, and scheduling clinical rotations.
