Ross University VP Business Planning and Development announces 3 year lease extention in Freeport

Freeport, Bahamas - The Bahamas Weekly presents an update on the Ross University Bahamas clinical site by way of an interview with Mr. Sandi Cutler, Vice President of Business Planning and Development, Ross University recorded on April 23rd, 2010. In this exclusive video interview Mr. Cutler shares information in regard to recent concerns expressed in the local media and reaffirms Ross University's commitment to remain in The Bahamas. Cutler also announced a 3-year extension on their lease at Seahorse Plaza. "We are not closing. We have a program we are continuing here. It is our Medical Education program. It is very successful. It is a program for people who are planning to attend Ross. It is a review and preparatory program. It's been here for a couple semesters and we will be adding to its enrollment." "Ross is going to stay open. We are staying here and we will have some faculty and staff here continuously. Ross is not closing, it is just that we've taken a piece of the program and shifted it back to Dominica until we get the California approval." "We've just agreed to a three-year extension in the Seahorse Plaza. We did that because when we originally did the lease it was more short-term because we thought we might be building that new campus more quickly. Now that we've had to delay things a little bit it just made sense given everything we've invested in here, to extend the lease here, and then to continue in the long-term to build out at our campus as we've always planned. Ross University was founded in 1978 and is a provider of medical and veterinary education offering doctor of medicine and doctor of veterinary medicine degree programs. The School of Medicine is located in Dominica, West Indies, and the Freeport, Grand Bahama campus recently opened in January 2009. The School of Veterinary Medicine is located in St. Kitts.
