MUA Dormitories

There are two MUA dormitories which are privately owned. One dormitory is located three miles from the main campus and is a five-minute walk to two of Nevis’ finest beaches. All dormitory rooms are fully furnished and contain a microwave, refrigerator, private bath, twin beds, desks and chairs, and a small patio with either an ocean or mountain view. Transportation to and from campus is provided by school vans. Laundry, fitness center, restaurant, and grocery facilities are adjacent to the dormitory. A second, similar dormitory is adjacent to the campus.

Rent (including utilities, government tax and security deposit for the entire semester $1,830.50 US/double; $2,539.39 US/single) must be paid by bank draft, traveler’s checks or certified check) on arrival to Mr. Orville Liburd, landlord of the dormitory. He will welcome you at the dorm upon your arrival on Nevis. A security deposit of $100 US per person is required and will be returned to the student when s/he returns to school for the next semester. If the student will not be returning to MUA, the security deposit will be returned once the room has been fully inspected.

All unaccompanied students must reside in the dorm during their first semester. The definition of an unaccompanied student is a student that does not have someone living with them on a permanent basis that qualifies for temporary residence (no overnight guests are allowed in the dorm.) By residing in the dorm, students will have the opportunity to meet other classmates, become oriented with the island, get settled in classes, and form study groups that may lead to future roommates in an apartment/house on the island. It may be possible to rent a single room depending upon the number of students enrolled in your class. With the assistance of the Housing Coordinator, the University will provide incoming students with a compatible roommate.

Off Campus Housing
Fully furnished apartments, houses, and single rooms are available for rent throughout the island.

Contact should be made approximately one month or more in advance of the date of matriculation.
