NMC & FMGE / NExT Compliance
Regulatory First. Admission Second.
For Indian students, MBBS abroad is not only about securing a seat.
The primary objective is eligibility to practice medicine in India.
All admissions processed by us are aligned with current regulations issued by the National Medical Commission (NMC), Government of India.
We do not compromise on regulatory compliance.
NEET Qualification – Mandatory
As per NMC regulations:
-
NEET qualification is compulsory for Indian students seeking MBBS abroad.
-
Without valid NEET qualification, a student will not be eligible for licensing in India.
-
NEET validity must comply with prevailing NMC guidelines.
We do not process applications for students who have not qualified NEET.
No exceptions.
