At first glance, this is a partnership program between two universities - Texila American University & Central University of Nicaragua.
Texila is NOT an American University as it's an offshore private medical school owned by "Texila... Ltd" Hong Kong.
From reading the WIKI page, this is what I gather... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texila_Ame...University
UCN Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Un..._Nicaragua
Texila & UCN homepage showing a few Masters programs: https://ucnedu.org/
What interests me more actually is their Ph.D. and Ph.D. by research programs: https://ucnedu.org/school-of-research/
Texila's Caribbean Med School: https://www.tauedu.org/
Note: No, I am not interested in going to Medical School (yet).

It looks like they never reply to your inquiry emails.

Texila is bad with responding to emails. They responded to mine when I asked some questions. I wish they hadn't. They seemed to think that hiding tuition costs makes sense and they defended it strongly. I wasn't interested in attending, but if I were that would've run me off forever.
Good luck to whomever goes with them.

Basically, I haven't tried emailing Texila or UCN yet, just to be on the safe side, did you check your junk/spam emails? I was calling back and forth with my insurance company as I never got a receipt of my payment. So, I had the lady send an email to my Gmail... it never came through, not in my junk/spam either... Tried my wife's Gmail, same issue. So, I got her to send it to my Outlook.com and Yahoo.com, boom, they both were in the junk/spam folder. For some reason, Gmail rejected the email...

Thanks, Cheung. No, I did all I could, including the junk email folder. What I wanted was a more detailed curriculum and checking if they accept transferred American credits. They even do not include an email address in the contact information on their website.
Anyway, I have my things to take care of, for now; maybe I will find ways to contact them again in the future.
I remember some dude on the sister forum once mentioned their courses are pretty good. I am open-minded and would not just defame the university for not being fond of using emails. After all, there are many nations where, culturally, email is not their preferred business communication method.

Texila is not transparent with any information because they are an unethical school that changes their policies, fees, and conditions, at whim, based on what makes them more money. I also regret contacting them.
I contacted the Zambia campus and was responded to by someone in India trying to force me to go to the Guyana campus, although I no longer live in the Caribbean, because they didn't want me to pay cheaper fees in Zambia. Then they accepted me and processed my card (all in Whatsapp) without even asking for a completed and signed application form, created a student portal for me after literally wasting an entire day assessing my qualifications only to contact me the next morning to say I can't attend the Zambia campus for made up reasons (contradictory to the published admission requirements on their website) and refused to refund my "application fee" processed after lying to me that I was accepted, taking my money, and giving me access to a student portal. And of course no emails for administration or senior staff
are published on their site to address their fraudulent activity. Just useless information about their jurisdiction being Hong Kong. A complete joke!
