Spring and autumn are mild at 5–15°C with beautiful seasonal landscapes. Kaunas is located in central Lithuania at the confluence of the Nemunas and Neris rivers.

Lithuania
For LSMU's BSc in Health Sciences (General Practice Nurse), eligibility is straightforward — but Indian students should confirm their entrance test status and Apostille requirements before applying.
Admission process
We verify your Class 12 Biology and Chemistry marks, IELTS or English test score, and NEET score (if applicable) to assess your LSMU competitiveness and entrance test exemption status. If your NEET score is 650 or above, we confirm your exemption with LSMU admissions immediately. We prepare your complete document set in the exact format LSMU requires: Class 10 and 12 certificates and marksheets Apostilled by MEA India, authorised English translations of any regional-language documents, IELTS/English certificate, passport copy, passport photograph (3×4 cm), and motivation letter. Apostille is mandatory — we guide you through the MEA process from your city.
Lithuania
Indian students choose Lithuania for nursing primarily because of LSMU's unique position: it is one of only 5 WHO Collaborating Centres for Nursing in all of Europe, and its BSc degree is automatically recognised across all 27 EU member states under EU Directive 2005/36/EC. The total 4-year cost of approximately EUR 31,000–45,000 (INR 28–41 lakhs) is dramatically lower than equivalent nursing programmes in Canada or the UK. Lithuania's Schengen membership is a key practical advantage — students can travel across 26 European countries on their residence permit, and a Lithuanian TRP is the foundation for building a European nursing career. Germany's nursing shortage (150,000+ additional nurses needed by 2027) creates documented long-term demand at EUR 2,800–3,800/month gross — a salary multiple of 10–15x what Indian hospitals pay. Part-time work rights (20 hours/week during term) allow students to offset living costs. Kaunas is an affordable, safe, student-friendly Baltic city with budget airline connections to all major European hubs.

United States
There is no single national entry standard for U.S. higher education. Each institution and programme sets its own academic prerequisites, application platform, English-language evidence, tests, deadlines, portfolio or interview requirements, and financial-aid rules. EducationUSA advises applicants to check the international admissions office of every institution rather than relying on a country-wide cutoff.

United States
Students choose the United States for breadth of subject choice, flexible degree structures, research and professional study options, campus-based student life and a large network of international advising resources. The right fit depends on the institution, programme, location, budget, admissions profile and immigration route rather than on a single national standard.
