Study MBBS in Russia

MBBS in Russia is a 6-year degree offered primarily as a bachelor's degree in general medicine. It is emerging as an option for all those prospective physicians who have not been able to obtain admission to a successful Indian medical college in recent years. Over 53 Russian universities offering MBBS degrees are accredited by the Indian Medical Council (MCI). Approximately 4000 Indians are practicing medicine in approximately 20 Russian universities as of August 2020.

Here are some of the reasons why MBBS students are drawn to study in Russia:

Tuition fees of MBBS in Russia are much less than in other countries like the USA, UK, Canada, etc.

The economy of India and Russia is almost at the same level as the value of 1 Russian ruble approximately equal to 0.99 INR. Thus, accommodation and other costs remain almost the same as in India.

The admission process is also extremely simple. Students are not required to appear for any additional country-wise examination like MCAT to study MBBS in Russia.

Language proficiency test scores like IELTS or TOEFL are also not required for admission in this country. This also saves the cost of appearing for such tests.

The curriculum of Russian medical universities is similar to Indian medical colleges. Thus, students can return back to India to pursue higher studies without any extra coaching.

The majority of the Russian universities are recognized by MCI and WHO. So, graduates can practice in India after qualifying the screening test.

Most of the Russian universities have coaching centers to prepare Indian students for MCI screening tests.

There is a 100% student visa guarantee if a student is accepted by a Russian university and submits all documents correctly.
