Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions from students and parents.

Is the degree recognized in Greece? expand_more
Yes. Degrees from Serbia's state universities are fully recognized in Greece and the European Union (through DOATAP). The program lasts 6 years and is fully harmonized with European standards (360 ECTS).
Are the courses taught in English? expand_more
Of course. The universities of Belgrade, Kragujevac, Niš and Novi Sad offer complete Medicine programs exclusively in English (English Medical Programs), specially designed for international students.
What is needed for enrollment? expand_more
Usually a high school diploma and an English certification (level B2) are required. We fully handle the preparation of your file and guide you through the exam process.
How safe is life in Serbia? expand_more
Serbia is one of the safest countries in Europe, with extremely low crime rates. Students move around comfortably at any time of day. Greeks are especially welcome and the Greek community is large and supportive.
Do I need to know the Serbian language? expand_more
Not for your studies, as the program is entirely in English. However, the universities offer basic Serbian courses during the first years to help you with your everyday communication and clinical practice with patients later on.
How much do the 6-year Medicine studies cost in total? expand_more
In total, tuition for 6 years of Medicine ranges from €21,500 (Foča) to €42,000 (Novi Sad). With living costs of €300-€600/month, the total budget for all years reaches €45,000-€85,000 — a fraction of the cost in countries such as the UK, Germany or Cyprus (€100,000-€150,000+).

Can I do my specialty in Greece afterwards? expand_more
