Important for Indian applicants
IMPORTANT: the fee figures on this page are ranges compiled from multiple agent/university-partner sources for the 2025-26 cycle, not confirmed official figures — the source brochure is itself explicitly marked as a 'planning draft' and instructs that tuition must be verified directly with each university's International Office / Secretariat for Studies in English before being quoted to a student.
Confirm each university's current NMC/WHO/WDOMS listing status directly before relying on it — the brochure explicitly flags this as unverified.
Indian applicants must meet the prevailing National Medical Commission (India) eligibility requirements before admission.
