As a UMHS student, you can enjoy all life has to offer while living and learning on one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean. St. Kitts is located in the West Indies surrounded by the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Although our diverse and collegial student body is bound primarily by a shared desire to practice medicine, you’ll find ample opportunities to make lasting connections outside the classroom. Participate in one of our dynamic student organizations, attend an extracurricular event, or partake in some of the endless sports and recreation opportunities available on and around campus. St. Kitts has the best of both worlds, with the luxury of living in the Caribbean plus all of the modern amenities expected from a Caribbean medical school, including grocery stores, banks, restaurants, coffee shops, and more.
