Welcome to Nevis
Nevis, a captivating and tranquil island in the eastern Caribbean, is an ideal location for medical school. It offers beautiful surroundings, safety, and accessibility. Students can enjoy warm Caribbean waters, white sand beaches, rainforest hikes, reef snorkeling, and historical sugar cane ruins. Nevis is also renowned for its fine dining and charming inns, often housed in old plantation âgreat housesâ.
A Message from the Premier of Nevis
As Premier, let me be the first to officially welcome you to the island of Nevis and to the prestigious Medical University of the Americas (MUA). Nevis has had a long and mutually beneficial association with MUA and I am delighted that you have chosen to study at MUA and in Nevis.
Our island is famous for its hospitality and for being the birthplace of U.S. Founding Father and first Secretary of the U.S. Treasury, Alexander Hamilton. We hope that you will find time to enjoy our natural environment, our incredible cuisine and take a dive into the islandâs history. May the sights and sounds of Nevis be forever etched in your memory as you embark on this new chapter in your life. I wish you every success in your studies.
Warm regards,
Mark Brantley, Premier of Nevis
