For the six-year MD, the lowest published figure is US$5,900 a year at SEU, followed by CIU at US$6,000. Cheapest is not best: compare accreditation, clinical training and recognition in your home country before price.
Are Georgian universities recognised internationally?
Georgian universities are authorised and their programmes accredited by the National Center for Educational Quality Enhancement (NCEQE). Whether your degree is recognised for practice or further study in your own country is decided by that country's regulator, so check it for the exact programme before you pay. For medicine, see our MBBS in Georgia guide.
What is the difference between CIU, CU and NVU?
They are three separate private universities in Tbilisi. Caucasus International University (CIU) and Caucasus University (CU) publish US$6,000 a year for the six-year English MD, and New Vision University (NVU) publishes US$7,000 and teaches in its own university hospital. CU adds business, computer science, architecture and design programmes, CIU adds dentistry, IT and business at lower published fees, and NVU adds dentistry, nursing and pharmacy. Our comparison page sets them side by side.
Which is the best city in Georgia to study in?
Tbilisi has the most universities, the largest international community and the best hospitals. Batumi offers a Black Sea setting and a calmer pace, and Kutaisi has the lowest living costs. The best city depends on your programme, budget and how independent you want to be.
Do I need IELTS to study in Georgia?
Not always. Georgian universities set their own English requirements for foreign applicants. Several accept an English-medium school certificate or an in-house English test and interview, while others ask for a B1 or B2 certificate such as IELTS. Check the requirement on each university's page.
