Do you know students who might like to go to medical school in Cuba?

Students who are accepted to study medicine in Cuba…

* do not pay for tuition or text books; and,

* receive a dorm room, meals and medical care for free.

After six years of training, students receive a M.D. with zero school 
loans to pay off.

What is the cost? Before being accepted, students must pledge to 
practice medicine in a low income community when they become a doctor.

Preference is given to students who have been actively involved in 
social justice movements and who are low income and/or people of color, 
though others are also welcome.
