University of Nicosia 2023

It's a good thing it isn't on the list - that list is for unis that do not meet all the standards required for the GMC. Lots of people have graduated from there join the GMC - that's what is says on the website anyway

Ah I see, in terms of application is it very competitive and if you have applied do you have any tips

From the best of my knowledge these are the universities that are looked at on a case basis

From what i know University of Nicosia is recognised in the UK and by the GMC as i have two close family friends that have graduated from there and are now working in FY2 in the UK

However things change so maybe it’s best emailing the school?

Hi! Do you know how do they get GMC registration after completion of year? Do they have to do Foundation year? Since you know couple of people who have graduated from there.
Is it possible for me to have a quick chat?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hii, yeah they just apply for full GMC registration and they have the option to go straight to FY2 since the 6th Year at UNIC med school is kinda equivalent to FY1.

But ik some people still choose to do FY1 just to get more experience working in the UK without the added pressure of being an FY2 doctor, it’s completely up to what you’re comfortable with.

Obviously this can still change but my friend graduated last year and this is what she did. Hopefully it stays the same for when we graduate!

Hi there,

I also received an offer a few weeks back, I am also from the UK

I am from Leicester where are you guys from?

I’m thinking of going to the U residence. There’s more rooms so there might be more people as well and it’s closer to the university.

Hi, We are also trying now. Waiting for the interview. We are from Grantham. Please let me know your contact, it would be good to catchup.

Hello, I just got an offer from UNIC for the September entry, but I applied in such a rush so I didn't have time to go look at the university before and I am from the UK. As you are currently studying there, can you please tell me how you find UNIC? It's just I would like to get some feedback from someone who studies there.

Hi,
Ex-student here. The university cares more about money than you as a student. If you ever need help for mental health issues, they refer you to "KESY" - which is actually psychology students disguised as a counselling service. These students are not able to diagnose. Personal tutors are a tick-box exercise, they do not assist you. They will never admit to making a mistake and will bend the rules for their benefit. Don't question the staff or else they'll prevent you from graduating (This happened to a friend of mine). Arrogrant, rude, discriminative and heartless academic leads. Medical education is sub-par, taught in English but clinical placements in Greek, doctors only translate when they are bothered.

Hi Levhh
My daughter had a 2023 UNIC offer for vet Med which she has accepted. She’d love to meet some others either in vet Med or medicine. Can she be added please?

Hi Levhh, what your daughter's experience so far in the Vet Med program at UNIC? Did she do under grad or applied after the high school? Thanks.

Hi,
I'm a bit late now but I am a unic student now in year 1. I'm not really sure if it is competitive (it shouldn't be really). Someone who has graduated and is now part of the GMC told me that it was competitive getting a placement in a hospital after they graduated as different places, such as London are more competitive to get into - it depends what area you want to be referred to.
