Nepalgunj Medical College, Nepal (NGMC): Fee, Admission & Courses

Step 1: Verify eligibility 

Ensure you meet the eligibility requirements for MBBS: 10+2 PCB performance and a NEET-UG score is considered valid.

Step 2: Submit your application

Foreign students can apply through the Medical Education Commission (MEC) of Nepal via the official portal: mec.gov.np.

Step 3: Check of Documents

However, candidates allotted to NGMC will have to upload and verify original documents such as mark sheets, certificates, passport and NEET scorecard.

Step 4: Accept your admission

Admission is only through MEC seat allotment, and based on that, NGMC issues the admission notice.

Step 5: Payment of Fees

The students are required to pay the prescribed tuition fees as per the college's fee structure for the academic year.

Step 6: Obtain Visa and Travel 

Following admission approval, students must obtain a visa and book travel to Nepal.

Step 7: Register at University 

Once Kathmandu University and Nepal Medical Council register you, this completes the admission process. 

Documents Required

• Passport valid for 18 months

• Class 10 report cards

• Class 12 report cards

• Proof of Birth

• NEET-UG result attestation/ proof of exam attendance from this school year

• Passport size pictures

• Transfer certificate where applicable

• Ministry of External Affairs of India verified documents sent to New Delhi

• Nepal Embassy's legalized documents

• Bank receipt of first year's tuition (once you are confirmed)

• Medical report stating you are fit to give blood and the results of an HIV test. 

Timeline of Applications

In Nepal the admission cycle for international students wishing to study MBBS follows MEC’s calendar; it does not adhere to the NGMC’s academic calendar. This means that registrations for the MECEE and NEET-linked seat allocation announcements are typically made mid-way through the year, after results for India’s NEET-UG examination. Due to these variations, you should check mec.gov.np or NGMC’s notice board for up to date details rather than assuming there is a fixed date. 

Student Life at Nepalgunj Medical College

Campus Activities 

NGMC has sports facilities, library and media resources besides academics. Day-to-day concerns are looked after by student welfare committees.

Cultural Events:

The calendar includes festival celebrations, college anniversaries (25th and 27th marked in recent years), and department-level events bringing together the mixed student body.

International Student Community:

With a sizeable intake from India and SAARC countries, hostels and mess facilities generally accommodate Indian dietary preferences alongside local Nepali food — a comfort often flagged for homesick first-year students. 

Career Prospects After MBBS

Practice in India:

MBBS from NGMC alone is not sufficient for practice in India; one needs to clear the corresponding license exam and register with NMC.

FMGE/NExT:

Presently, an Indian student graduating from abroad has to appear in the FMGE test in order to practice in India; FMGE itself is merging into the broader NExT program. It’s better to check the current notification from the NMC as there could be changes.

Postgraduate Study:

The student can go for postgraduate studies in Nepal (MD/MS from Kathmandu University, conducted in several specialties through NGMC), or he can go for postgraduation in India by clearing the NEET-PG test.

Internationla Career Paths:

NGMC is registered in the World Directory of Medical Schools, and hence one is qualified to give the tests like USMLE in USA or PLAB test in UK.
