Why MBBS in Ukraine?
You may wonder, why MBBS inUkraine? If you’re spending money to fly to a European country and have to stay there for 6 long years while spending for your expenses, then why not pursue an MBBS in any private medical college in India by paying that hefty capitation fee, wouldn’t that be more economical? No! Let me explain.
In India, the cost of getting an MBBS degree from any private medical college with decent infrastructure is no less than 80 lakhs rupees (yes eighty lakhs, it’s not a typo), many times it crosses even a crore (again, not a typo) depending on which college on which part of the country you select. This is just capitation fee we are talking about; regular tuition fee would be charged on top of that before every semester or every year.
Now, if we consider Ukraine – the picture seems unbelievably brighter and vibrant for any medical aspirants. Let’s take an example of the tuition fee. What if I tell you that you can complete full 6 years of “MD Physician” (equivalent to MBBS in India) course in Ukraine tuition fee of fewer than 20 lakhs Indian rupees? Sounds thrilling, right? And it’s not yet started, there’s much more exciting information for you .
Absolutely zero capitation fee .
Unlike in India, medical colleges don’t charge any sort of lump sum amount in the name of capitation fee or donation. You’re only bound to pay the tuition fee, which starts from approximately 20 lakhs total in Indian currency for 5 years full time residential “MD Physician” program.
