Press Release: Official Partnership Between Medschool Experts and the University of Niš
17.09.2026
What has been agreed?
Medschool Experts is an official partner agency of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Niš. The placement covers the English-taught human medicine programme, which has a standard duration of six years.
What sets this location apart
The annual fee is €6,000 and can also be paid quarterly — a payment arrangement offered at very few locations, and one that makes financing far easier for many families to plan.
The faculty is part of a large university hospital with a broad range of clinical cases. It is listed with the UK General Medical Council, which means graduates also have a route into the United Kingdom.
The city
Niš is Serbia's third-largest city and has low living costs — around €500 a month is enough for everyday life. The airport is five kilometres from the city centre; Wizz Air flies from Memmingen, Dortmund, Karlsruhe and Berlin in around two hours. Free-time options include the fortress in the city centre, the thermal baths at Niška Banja, hiking in the Suva Planina mountains and, in August, the Nišville jazz festival.
{{cta}}On recognition
Serbia is not part of the European Union. For professional licensing in Germany, an individual equivalence assessment therefore applies. This is a well-established route that should be planned for from the very start — and supporting our students through exactly that is part of what we do.
Marcel Kloos on what this means
Niš is one of those locations I recommend more often than its profile would suggest. Two things make the difference: the quarterly payment option, which for many families is what makes the financing possible at all, and the GMC listing, which keeps a British career path open.
One thing you need to be aware of: Serbia is a non-EU country. Anyone who intends from the outset to work in Germany should have the equivalence assessment explained to them in detail beforehand — not in their sixth year of study.
Summary
If you are thinking about studying medicine abroad, simply get in touch with us. We have the largest choice of official partner universities, and we check every profile individually to find where the highest possible entry point is available — often entry into the final two years. Your first consultation is free of charge.
