Georgia
Indian students applying for MBBS in Georgia must meet NMC requirements for overseas medical education.
Admission process
We assess your profile and shortlist Georgian universities based on NMC guideline compliance, official regulatory verification, English-medium delivery, and 6-year cost. Georgia has 36+ private medical universities in Tbilisi alone — we present only institutions with a verified track record for Indian students and documented FMGE outcomes. We prepare your application documents: Class 10 and 12 marksheets, NEET scorecard, passport copy, and photographs. Georgia does not require apostille on Indian academic documents, which simplifies preparation compared to Russia and Kyrgyzstan.
Russia
Russia has 50+ medical colleges meeting NMC guidelines and accepting Indian students. Before shortlisting a medical college in Russia, confirm the Indian-side eligibility requirements and then verify the exact university-side admissions route — each institution uses its own document formats, interview processes, and enrollment timelines.
