Why study medicine in Europe in English?

EU-recognised degrees
All programmes are EU-accredited under the Professional Qualifications Directive, so your degree is valid across the EEA — with routes to Helsedirektoratet (Norway), the GMC/GDC (UK) and USMLE eligibility (US/Canada).
Fully taught in English
Every programme is delivered 100% in English. You don't need to speak Slovak, Czech or German — local language is offered only as an optional extra.
No MCAT, no top grades
There's no MCAT. At UPJŠ, UPOL, UMCH and NCU there is no minimum grade beyond finishing high school — they use a short entrance exam, and we prepare you for it for free. RSU and UNIC are the exceptions: no exam there, so your diploma decides.
Affordable & Lånekassen-eligible
Tuition is a fraction of UK or US private schools, and Norwegian students can fund it through Lånekassen (loan, grant and tuition support).
