NEW YORK, Oct. 15, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The University of Medicine and Health Sciences (UMHS), a small, mission-driven medical school with a commitment to student support and a legacy of successful residency placements in the United States and Canada, today announced that it has signed an articulation agreement with Trent University, creating a pathway for the Canadian university's undergraduates to earn their medical degree from UMHS. Under this agreement, students from Trent University will be fast-tracked for admission to UMHS after meeting established standards set forth in the articulation agreement.
