Frequently asked questions

Short answers to the questions we hear most often about starting in year one.

Is a degree from abroad recognised?

Degrees from EU universities are automatically recognised across the EU under Directive 2005/36/EC. For other destinations, licensing depends on the country where you want to practise. We show you which universities fit your career goal.

Do I need to speak the local language?

No. The programmes we place you in are taught in English. Most universities add local language classes during the first years so that you can talk to patients in the clinical phase.

Which university is right for me?

That depends on your profile, your budget and where you want to work later. In the free consultation we compare the options with you and name the universities where we can place you reliably.

When can I start?

Most universities start in autumn, some offer an additional intake in winter or spring. The earlier you contact us, the more options you have.

Can I change university later?

Yes. Credits follow the European ECTS system, and we support university transfers if your plans change during your studies.
