Nucleus University has acknowledged recent allegations directed at the institution. In response, representatives from the Nucleus University School of Medicine & Dentistry (NUSOMD) have issued a formal statement to reaffirm their mission and address public concerns.
NUSOMD is based in Aruba with a clear and sincere purpose: to help improve dental care and expand access to affordable, high-quality services. While education is central to its mission, the university is also committed to training the next generation of medical and dental professionals under the guidance of qualified experts.
The university emphasizes that every individual in Aruba—regardless of income or family background—deserves access to modern, high-quality dental care. Its dental education program, aligned with the CAAM-HP framework, along with its outreach clinic, is dedicated to serving the local community with professionalism and compassion.
Nucleus University welcomes students from Canada, the United States, and various other countries. These students live, study, and contribute to Aruba’s economy for four or more years. In addition, NUSOMD offers scholarship opportunities to local Aruban students, covering up to 50% of regular tuition fees for dental studies.
The presence of international students fosters cultural exchange and volunteerism, creating lasting connections that benefit both the island and the students’ academic and personal development.
NUSOMD recognizes that progress often brings change but believes that Aruba is a place where growth, inclusion, and opportunity are valued. The university stresses that its role is not to compete, but to collaborate, serve, and contribute to a shared vision for a better future.
As part of its commitment to transparency and community engagement, the university extends an open invitation to the public to visit the campus and learn more about its work.
To the patients, neighbors, partners, and friends across Aruba, Nucleus University expresses sincere gratitude for their trust. The university is honored to be part of the Aruban community and remains dedicated to improving access to quality healthcare for all.
Together, they strive to bring a healthier and stronger future to the people of Aruba.
