Applying abroad to study medicine (Romania, Bulgaria etc)..NEED HELP !!!

any iasi applicants out there??

anyone?

i am doing my residency in orthopaedics in constanta. THE tuition fees is 5000 euro. you also have to pay an application fee. Accomodation for a two bedroom flat for a month is about 200 - 250 Euro, 1 room - 150 Euro. You bills; Electricity, heating and internet is about 100 USD a month if its winter and 50USD if its summer.

However you must start searching on time as the good and cheap ones get easily taken before october due to new students and landlords changing their tenants.

transportation is quite cheap and the city is nice.

Hi, First thanks for replying but, secondly I was going to apply through EUNICAS and they stated that tuition fee was 3800 euros? Is this wrong? I am applying from the UK so how do I search for accomodation from here?And also, do you mind if I ask you what grades did you get in your Alevels if you did them in the UK? Thanks.

The information is wrong. The tuition fee is 5000 euro. It was just increased recently. We even had a discussion with the rector recently about it. For accomodation is dependent on what you want. Most people share with others and some stay alone. The requirements are just credits in Chemistry, Biology, Physics and English in O levels. If you have A levels is a plus for you. When you arrive you will take a test in Biology, chemistry and english.

HI all, I am thinking about applying to study medicine abroad (a bit late I know) and was wondering which country is the best to go to? A lot of this discussion has been about Romania but is that the best place to go to? I am interested in studying in Italy but I have been told it is very corrupt there, would it be better to study in Romania? And also is Eunicas a safe company to use to apply? I would really appreciate any information you have!

Hope this helps....I am applying this week unfortunately since I found about the uni quite late but hoping for the best nonetheless

1. Do you have to take it - yes, I'm in the same boat, I'm English, took a Degree in England and have English qualifications.

2. It costs 350 euros- I have been led to believe that those who have done thier diplomas (uni or school) in an English speaking country and in English do not have to pay for this test (but they must take it).

3. The process is a lot of money- Even with finding a place to stay, it'll be so much cheaper than staying in the UK for that time, just from living expenses alone (you would be coming less that an month early), plus you're not taking into account 9000pounds vs 5000 euro tuition. Surely you would want to go there that early so you can check it all our and make sure you're settled before the course starts?

4. Plane tickets- I booked with BA last week to leave on the 31st, it cost me £156, that's not even a budget airline, you must only be looking at business class or something? surely if money is that tight you would look into wizz air or blue air....

Ok thanx for the info, but I am not sure that just because ur english u dont have to pay for the test, I know they do that for Carol Davila, but there is no mention of it for Constanta....
And no of course I was not looking at business class, unlike some I have to fund this myself entirely, not sponsored by bank of mum and dad so excuse me if im tring to keep on budget. I was actually looking at the local airline Tarom, and that was their price range, I never would have though, especially BA, would be cheaper, so thanx for the tip!!!
Sent my applications off this morning!

Hello guys!!

I've been thinking of applying for medicine in 2014.

So far, only 3 unis have captured my interest :

Carol Davila
Ovidius
and Cluj.

Which of them is better?
Or more recognized?
I'd like to go work in the UK or the US. Will I be ok?

Please enlighten me! Thanks in advance!

Hey last year I applied to carol Davila and there were about 40 students (around 35 applied through plus med) from the UK, all got rejected and they don't care about your grades, all that matters is the English test results. I also got rejected so I decided to go along with around 15 British students to Craiova since it is the biggest medical Uni in Romania with the biggest hospital.
I love it here at the moment and the university organise elections and allow students to take control of the organisation of the course and there are so many opportunities to do practical work in the hospital and clinics here. The city is great with lots to do and a great night life and funny enough it is a lot safer than majority of UK cities which is something I didn't expect before coming here.

If you have any question send me a message ?

Hello, I am applying to Craiova. I have lived in the United Kingdom all my life and have graduated from University in the United Kingdom, can you tell me if I am still required to do the English test in Craiova UMF?

Kind regards
