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. The Medical University Housing
Coordinator, Ms. Sharon Lescott, will provide assistance in
locating suitable housing for those students arriving on Nevis
with a spouse or family. Contact should be made approximately
one month or more in advance of the date of matriculation. |
