Frequently asked questions about this university
What are the entry requirements for Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences in Ulaanbaatar?
You need a general higher-education entrance qualification (A-levels or equivalent). There is no numerus clausus, so your school-leaving grade does not determine your place. You will also need a sufficient command of English and a student visa.
How do I apply through Medschool Experts?

Tuition fees are available on request — contact us for a current fee schedule. Additional costs include the application fee, visa, health insurance, travel, and accommodation.
How much money do I need per month in Ulaanbaatar?
Budget 400 to 700 EUR per month for living costs. This is well below Western European levels. The exact amount depends mainly on whether you live in student accommodation or privately.
How is the programme structured and how long does it take?
The programme lasts 6 years, aufgebaut als 2 years Grundlagenphase plus 4 years MD-Programm. First comes the pre-clinical phase with the theoretical foundations, then the clinical phase with examination courses and placements at affiliated hospitals. The final year is primarily practical in focus.
Is the degree recognised?
Not automatically in the EU. As Mongolia is outside the EU, the competent authority in your target country will assess your degree on a case-by-case basis. If the assessment is favourable, you receive recognition; otherwise an aptitude or knowledge test may be required first. We plan this route with you from the outset.
Will I receive a transcript of records?
Yes. Your performance is recorded in a transcript showing subjects, examinations, and grades. This is exactly the document the authorities need later for the equivalence assessment. Keep all semester certificates and grade reports safely — they are difficult to obtain retrospectively.
Can I transfer to a university in my home country during my studies?
There is no automatic transfer route. A transfer to a domestic faculty involves an individual credit-recognition process and depends on available places in higher semesters. Plan your studies as a complete path to graduation.
How does Medschool Experts support you on the ground?
We organise the application and all documents, support you through enrolment, accommodation, and administrative requirements, and remain your contact after your studies begin. We also tell you upfront where the weaknesses of this particular location lie.
