The island of Nevis is,
without question, one of the finest islands in the Caribbean
to study medicine. Nevis
is a small island where green is the dominant color. In
addition to its tropical beauty, Nevis is a country where
there is virtually no crime and where the literacy rate
is the highest in the Western Hemisphere. MUA was developed
with the support of the government of Nevis,
and is therefore able to offer reasonable tuition, an
active scholarship program, high quality instruction and
a continuous, stable future for our graduates.
