Established in 2004, the American University of Antigua (AUA) College of Medicine, part of the prestigious Manipal Education and Medical Group, is a fully accredited international medical school offering a rigorous, innovative education designed to prepare students for successful careers in medicine.
Manipal’s AUA has grown into a hub for international education, operating from a modern, 150,000 sq. ft. technologically advanced campus in Antigua. It follows a US-modeled curriculum that emphasizes hands-on training and personalized learning through small batch sizes.
With clinical rotations at over 35+ affiliated teaching hospitals across the United States, UK, and Canada, and a vast network of over 4,000 accomplished alumni practicing worldwide, Manipal’s AUA provides a dynamic and nurturing environment for students to develop their medical expertise.
The university is recognized by the Medical Board of California (MBC), approved by the New York State Education Department, and accredited by the Caribbean Accreditation Authority for Education in Medicine and Other Health Professions (CAAM-HP). Graduates are fully eligible for residencies and medical licensing exams in the USA, Canada, and the UK, opening doors to global opportunities.
Backed by Manipal’s 70-year legacy in healthcare and education, Manipal’s AUA is more than just a medical school. It emphasizes a holistic admissions approach, selecting highly motivated students based on a well-rounded profile that includes 10th and 12th scores, personal interviews, entrance test, letters of recommendation, and extracurricular activities, rather than relying solely on the NEET score.
Alumni Spotlight
“I didn’t come from a family of doctors, and my path wasn’t traditional, but AUA believed in me when others didn’t. With strong academics, supportive mentors, and hands-on training, I was prepared to match into residency and complete a competitive fellowship in interventional cardiology. Today, I’m a board-certified interventional cardiologist at Medicor Cardiology in New Jersey, treating complex heart and vascular conditions using advanced, minimally invasive techniques. AUA gave me the foundation and confidence to pursue the career I truly wanted.”
