Trinity students attend grand rounds at Johns Hopkins Hospital
Trinity Medical College has imbibed the fundamental philosophy offered by Sir William Osler who recommended that the third and fourth year medical students should be allowed to work with the patients in a hospital so that they learn the bedside practice skills and also develop the practical perception of things and disease conditions. He executed this approach at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, US. In pursuance with this concept, Trinity Medical College has been continuing with the Clinical Clerkships Program for its students who take the Grand Rounds at Johns Hopkins! Besides, we have a wide network of hospitals that are part of our clerkships program for students.
We have special focus on the Baltimore area so as to allow our students to find the ease to cover the region well. They also get chance to reach out to the community of the physician. This eliminates the unnecessary wastage of resources, especially time of our students who can focus on their studies throughout their clerkship rotation. Our network of hospitals for securing clerkship rotations for students include the following--

Baltimore Regional Hospitals

Elective Tracks and Residency Success
While Trinity School of Medicine's core rotations are localized to its Baltimore program and there are local electives available, we also offer "elective tracks" in Baltimore, Chicago, and middle Georgia. Why Chicago and middle Georgia? Trinity leadership has deep connections in both locations, but we also want to adhere to the same principles that shape our core rotations: give students a place to call home to let them focus on what matters: their education.
Students are invited, as always, to select their own electives to sharpen their skills and broaden their experiences, but for those that do better in a more structured setting, we provide two other "home base" elective locations in addition to our Baltimore opportunity. These proven, focused elective tracks provide set-electives that are tailored to help guide students into specific residencies.

The total tuition fees to study MD / MS in USA at Trinity School of Medicine would be USD 1,01,775 for 5 years of MD program (Bachelor level). However, there is Scholarship up to 35% (USD 53,050) being allotted to various students based on Merit and Need. Most of the students who apply early (Before the Scholarship dries out) in this university can pursue MBBS in USA with the offered scholarship (Maximum amount of Rs. 35,00,000). The total MBBS in USA fees structure reduces to almost Rs. 6717150 for 5  Years bachelor level program. This is almost equivalent to the fees of the Private medical colleges in India. The private colleges in India have raised their fee structure to almost Rs. 16 Lacs per year on average. Accordingly, the cost to study in Indian private medical colleges has become more expensive than to study MBBS in USA. The difference is the roadmap in USA is right up to PG and not limited to bachelor level!
