About studying in Georgia

Georgia, at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, has become one of the most popular destinations for international medical students. Its state and private medical universities offer six-year MD (MBBS) programmes taught entirely in English, recognised by NMC (India), WHO/WDOMS, FAIMER, ECFMG and the GMC. Tuition and living costs are a fraction of Western Europe, the country is consistently ranked among the safest in the region, and students get strong clinical exposure in modern teaching hospitals. With no entrance donation and a transparent admission process, Georgia offers a genuine European study experience at a South-Asian budget.
