VU does not advertise automatic merit scholarships exclusively for non-EU nursing bachelor's students. VU Talent Scholarships based on academic merit are available — check vu.lt/en/students/services-for-students/finance for current criteria. Lithuanian Government scholarships (via studyin.lt) offer funding for some eligible non-EU students in specific fields. Erasmus+ exchange semesters provide EUR 350–700/month living stipends. VU dormitories at EUR 70–180/month substantially reduce living costs vs private accommodation (EUR 200–450/month) — apply for dormitory immediately after admission. Part-time work (20 hours/week, EUR 5.65/hour minimum) generates EUR 450–490/month in Vilnius — the city has the best part-time job market in Lithuania. Indian education loans (SBI, HDFC Credila, Axis, Avanse) are available for QS-ranked public university programmes — VU's QS #446 ranking makes it one of the strongest international loan files available.
How we assess
We confirm whether any fee waiver is merit-based, automatic, limited-seat, renewal-dependent, or deferred to later years before presenting it as part of a cost plan.
What we obtain in writing
Written scholarship terms, net payable tuition after any waiver, and whether hostel or ancillary charges are excluded are confirmed before families make a financial decision.
An overseas MBBS opens six career pathways. India return via FMGE/NExT is the most common, but the same degree qualifies you to sit licensing exams for the USA, UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand — or stay for PG in Lithuania.
Timeline: 6–9 months after graduation
Most common pathway for Indian students. After completing your MBBS and one-year internship abroad, you clear FMGE (being replaced by NExT) to obtain NMC registration. Students Traffic provides free FMGE/NExT coaching for students who join through us.
