St. Andrew’s School, Turi and St. George’s University (SGU) School of Medicine in Grenada, West Indies, have formalized an academic affiliation aimed at expanding structured pathways for students pursuing careers in medicine.
Through this affiliation, eligible St. Andrew’s Turi students will have access to a structured admissions pathway to SGU. SGU will also engage with students through a range of academic and career-focused initiatives, including webinars, in-person events, clinical workshops, and one-on-one advisory sessions. These activities are designed to help students gain insights into the medical profession and life as a future SGU student.
Students from St. Andrew’s Turi who are admitted to SGU may be considered for a partial scholarship, a guaranteed interview, and access to SGU’s Global Medic Club, an online platform featuring curated academic content.
St. Andrew’s School, Turi established in 1931, is a well-established independent boarding school in Kenya offering a British-style education. The school prepares students for IGCSE and A-Level examinations and has built a reputation for strong academic performance and university placement in the United Kingdom, North America, and other international destinations. With a diverse student body and a longstanding emphasis on academic discipline, leadership, and co-curricular development, St. Andrew’s Turi provides structured university counselling to support students pursuing competitive professional pathways, including medicine.

At St. Andrew’s Turi, we are committed to ensuring that our learners and their families have access to transparent, accurate information about international medical education options. By working closely with St. George’s University, we are able to offer structured engagement, clearer insight into program, and early exposure to the academic expectations required for entry into medical training. We believe this collaboration will support our students in making informed decisions about their future academic journeys.”
Aurelie Lily Phommarack, Assistant Director for International Academic Affiliates at SGU, stated: “We are pleased to formalize our affiliation with St. Andrew’s Turi and to support its students as they explore careers in medicine.
