Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • Applicants need a qualifying secondary-school diploma and the required recognition/documentation; selection includes English, Biology and Chemistry examinations.
  • The 2026 process distinguishes non-EU applicants from EU/EEA applicants.
  • Passing an entry test is not an admission guarantee.
  • Medical transfers are individually assessed against subjects, hours, credits and examinations, not promised as automatic advanced standing.
  • Indian medicine applicants must separately verify NMC eligibility, internship structure and registration requirements before enrolling.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • English-taught versions of the three listed programmes are published.
  • Ask the faculty for the current Bulgarian-language progression, patient-contact arrangements and clinical-assessment language.
  • An English lecture stream does not mean all patients communicate in English.
  • Dental graduates can request an English diploma supplement confirming the teaching language.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • The 2026/27 English cohort started on 19 October 2026.
  • Verify the next annual call; no spring intake is established here.

Admission planning

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • The university describes a financial-support documentation route for enrolled foreign students; that is not evidence of an entrance tuition scholarship.
