Medical Registration Abroad

By W. A. R.

Thinking that our medical people, especially those who are preparing for practise in countries outside of the United States, might be interested in the requirements of the British Council, I quote the following from a letter received from the Registrar of the General Council of Medical Education and Registration of the United Kingdom, dated Jan. 22, 1907:—

“The following American institutions are recognized by this Board as ones at which the curriculum of medical education may be completed, so that it is only necessary for their diplomates to sit for the final examination: New York University and Bellevue Hospital Medical College; Columbia University (College of Physicians and Surgeons); Cornell University; Pennsylvania University; Jefferson College; Harvard University; Rush Medical College; Northwestern University, Chicago; Michigan University; Cooper Medical College, San Francisco; University of California; Yale University; Buffalo University; Minneapolis University, Minnesota; Cincinnati University; Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore.”

This does not mean that medical studies can not be pursued in other colleges for a part of the course, but that a degree from any one of these colleges will be accepted as evidence of preliminary and professional education preparatory to the final examination in Great Britain.
