Medical University of the Americas

Partner Type: Articulation and Credit Transfer

Founded in 1998 on the beautiful and peaceful Caribbean island of Nevis, Medical University of the Americas (MUA) has helped 1,800+ students achieve their Doctor of Medicine (MD) degrees.

MUA proudly provides aspiring physicians with the medical education and individualized support they need to achieve their dreams of a career in medicine, including the opportunity to undertake clinical rotations in the U.S. and select elective rotations in Canada.
MUA physicians go on to practice in all 50 U.S. states, Canada, and internationally.

Partnership highlights

Through the newly established pathway, eligible UNF students pursuing their Honours Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences (HBSc) degree can begin the MUA MD program one year sooner than traditional undergraduate to medical school timelines.

This accelerated educational route allows pathway participants to complete three years (90 credits) of their four-year undergraduate program at UNF and then begin MUA's 10-semester MD program.

After successfully completing the first two semesters at MUA (in Basic Sciences), students will automatically be granted their final 30 undergraduate credits and receive their honors bachelor’s degree from UNF.
