A Force for Good
Now more than ever, we need leaders who want to make a positive impact in the world.
One of the most important facets of a healthy society is access to quality healthcare. Patients today are seeking healthcare providers who can enhance their quality of life, while also relating to them and making a positive impact in the communities where they work and live.
Healthcare professionals are a force for good. From doctors, nurses and veterinarians to those who advance patient advocacy, they embody the future innovators and changemakers of our society.

In 2025, RUSVM is ranked number one among all universities in total graduates matched into selective internships and residences through the Veterinary Internship and Residency Matching Program (VIRMP).
American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (AUC) and Ross University School of Medicine (RUSM) reached a combined 94% first-time residency attainment rate for 2024-2025 graduates, with more than 600 graduates continuing their medical training at more than 350 health facilities across 44 U.S. states and territories.1
