Study Medicine in English in Croatia, Europe!

In the academic year 2003, University of Zagreb School of Medicine introduced a new 12 semester (6-year) Medical Studies in English (MSE) Program. Graduates of the program are granted a diploma conferring the professional title of Doctor of Medicine (MD). This program is entirely instructed in English language, and is also designed so as to meet both American (USMLE) and European Union standards.

Beginning in 2005/2006, the Government of Canada has recognized University of Zagreb School of Medicine and Canadian citizens are eligible to apply for government (OSAP) student funding.

The University of Zagreb, founded in 1669, is the oldest and most distinguished institution of higher learning in South-East Europe. Its School of Medicine, founded in 1917, has a long tradition of educating foreign students. So far over 700 foreign citizens have earned their medical degree in Zagreb. Graduates of the University of Zagreb School of Medicine have established private practices or found teaching positions in medical schools all over the world, including the U.S. and Canada. Currently, University of Zagreb School of Medicine has students enrolled from the U.S., Canada, U.K., Israel, Europe, Australia and Asia. It should be pointed out that a medical profession (especially an MD degree) is in the vast majority of the countries a strictly regulated profession. Therefore, prospective students are strongly advised to make themselves familiar with laws, by-laws, ordinances and any other legal acts of their native country and their compatibility with the MSE programme.

The number of places available for Medical Studies in English Program is 50.

Academic year starts in October and the admission is possible only into the winter semester.

The tuition fee for each academic year is 12.000 Euro (approx. 13.500 USD) if paid at once or 12.200 Euro (payable in two instalments) prior to the beginning of each semester. Application fee is 200€.

The deadline for applications for the summer exam term in Zagreb and transfer students for academic year 2019/2020 is June 20, 2019. The deadline for applicants taking SAT/ BMAT/ MCAT tests is April 20, 2019. Late and incomplete applications will not be considered.
