A Brief History of Nevis by The World Factbook 2002
First settled by the British in 1623, the islands became an associated state with full internal autonomy in 1967. The island of Anguilla rebelled and was allowed to secede in 1971. Saint Kitts and Nevis achieved independence in 1983. In 1998, a vote in Nevis on a referendum to separate from Saint Kitts fell short of the two-thirds majority needed. Read More

The Medical University of the Americas was established to provide quality educational opportunities for students from around the world. At MUA, education is seen as more than the process of taking courses in a prescribed curriculum. Rather, the Medical University recognizes that the process of education incorporates the opportunities for intellectual achievement, demonstrated behavior changes, sound decision making skills, and moral-ethical development. When these intellectual and personal qualities are brought together, the student matures into a professional who will represent the Medical University with distinction. In keeping with the institutional goals to provide a full range of educational opportunities for all students, the Department of Education for St. Christopher-Nevis and the Board of Trustees approved programs leading to a Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree, a combined Doctor of Psychology - Doctor of Medicine (Psy.D. - M.D.) program, a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree, a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree, and a Pre-Medical curriculum. The medical curriculum incorporates standards of academic and clinical instruction, which parallel those of ACGME accredited teaching programs in the United States. Enrollment is open to all persons regardless of race, national origin, religion, sex, or age, who wish to devote the extensive time and effort necessary to practice medicine.
Our Medical curriculum is patterned after the finest U.S. medical schools and is designed to meet the licensing requirements in the United States and other countries abroad.
We admit only 40 students per semester
Our small student/faculty ratio of 6:1, allows for maximum interaction between students and professors.
Each student is treated as a professional by a caring, empathetic administration and staff.
All classes are taught in English: Nevis is in the Federation of St. Kitts and Nevis, a sovereign state within the British Commonwealth of Nations.
After 20 months of Basic Science classes on Nevis, the second two years of Clinical Medicine is offered through affiliated hospitals in the Unites States, Europe and the West Indies.
