Frequently asked questions

MBBS at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Medical College — 9 questions answered

These are the most common questions Indian students and families ask before applying for MBBS at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Medical College, Belle Rive. Covering admissions, fees, recognition, eligibility, hostel, career outcomes, and the India-return pathway — everything you need before making your decision.

Is the MBBS programme direct-entry after high school?

Yes. Admission follows Class 12/HSC/A-Level results (plus a NEET pass for Indian applicants), with no separate bachelor's or foundation stage required first.

Who awards the MBBS degree?

The degree is awarded by the University of Mauritius, a public university; SSR Medical College is the affiliated teaching institution.

How long is the programme?

5 years (10 semesters of 6 months each), followed by a compulsory 1-year rotating internship.

What is the current tuition fee?

USD 8,000 per year (USD 40,000 total tuition over 5 years) plus a one-time, non-refundable USD 5,000 registration fee, for a grand total of USD 45,000 on the standard yearly payment plan. A one-time-payment option offers a 20% tuition discount, bringing the total to USD 37,000.

Are there additional fees besides tuition?

Yes -- a USD 100 per-subject examination fee, and a USD 1,000 per-subject fee for repeating a failed subject at the university-exam level.

What entrance exam does the university require?

Indian applicants must have qualified NEET (any year's result is accepted); other applicants are assessed on their secondary-school science and English grades. There is no separate SSR-administered entrance exam.

When does the academic year start?

SSR runs two intakes a year (February/March and August/September). For the August/September 2026 batch, the stated deadline is 15 August 2026 for Indian applicants and 15 January 2027 for the international batch.

Is a scholarship available for MBBS students?

No SSR-funded scholarship exists for any nationality, per the college's own FAQ. The college separately references a Mauritius-government scholarship scheme for students from some African countries, but its current status could not be independently verified.

Do Indian students need NEET to join this programme?

Yes. NEET is compulsory for Indian applicants, and since June 2018 a NEET pass has served as the deemed Eligibility Certificate for joining an MBBS programme abroad, without a separate certificate. After graduating, Indian students must still clear India's FMGE screening exam (or its planned NExT successor) before practising in India.
