MUA Belize rec'd its' campus from Nevis... it seemed that Nevis had under its' charter the capability to open up another campus with the assumption that MUA Belize would always go on its' own at some time; SABA, from what I understand, did not have the "US comparable" certification when all all three campuses were together, and the owners of MUA Belize helped to achieve that certification; SABA and Nevis are still tied together (owner is the same unless things have changed that I don't know??); There was no shakeout or anything like that...

This all sounds like a bunch of hogwash to me. We don't know what went on with MUA Nevis or even what is in its charter. I don't think any school has a charter which says that it can open some other school. It's illogical. More likely is the theory which someone put forth here a couple of months ago that the guy who made Saba started MUA-Nevis after a couple of years. And then he started MUA-Belize but sold it very quickly to someone else.
Anyway, I'm not sure what 'US comparable certification' you are referring to because Saba and MUA-Nevis students have never been eligible for Student Loans thru the US government (I'm talking about Federal Stafford loans here). The NCFMEA stopped certifying new schools for Stafford loan eligibility in the Caribbean sometime before Saba even got started.
I wish somebody from the MUA-Belize administration would inform us of why they kept the name.
