Affordable medicine degrees, no IELTS, English-medium and WHO/NMC recognised.
Georgia has emerged as one of the most popular destinations for Indian students pursuing MBBS. Georgian medical universities are recognised by the WHO, the NMC India and the US ECFMG — meaning graduates can pursue licensing in India, the USA, the UK and Europe. With extremely affordable tuition (USD $4,000–$8,000/year), no IELTS requirement, English-medium instruction and a safe, beautiful country, Georgia is a rapidly growing destination.
