What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0000237) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 110 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.7★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Argentina yourself before paying anything.
  • Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
  • A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
  • Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.

Mayra Romera

Hello! My lawyer requested an appointment for a DNA test and I would like to know if they are currently being given or if they will start giving them in February when the judicial holiday ends and classes begin. Why am I calling and no one is answering me? I would really appreciate your response. Thank you very much in advance.

María Eugenia Arroyo

I am taking an extension course at the Faculty of Medical Sciences to become a Health Agent and I didn't expect to meet so many professors with experience, love and dedication to their work. I am very grateful to each doctor and specialist who is going to provide us with information.

Virginia Sosa

Hello, I've called and no one answers. I'd like to know how much a DNA test costs, and if the person is a minor, do they need the mother's permission because she doesn't live with her, but with the maternal grandmother, and the guardianship process is underway? Thank you.

Carlos Garcia

Excellent medical school. Excellent staff of professionals and non-teaching staff. There's a library, a buffet, a morgue, and a laboratory. There's a new research extension with modern equipment. Graduates have significant endorsement due …

Ro Mo

Excellent place, a faculty that deserves all the stars, a training ground for great professionals. Today I had the opportunity to be part of something historic. I hope they continue with these training programs that help people save lives.

juan javier jesus Moreno

The faculty grounds are large and have plenty of green space for enjoying a mate (a traditional South American infused drink), and each faculty has its own cafeteria for whatever you might need. In addition, the university cafeteria is …

Congratulations to the entire Covid-19 Vaccination team! The service was extremely efficient! Fast and friendly, the medical explanations about different vaccines, possible post-vaccine symptoms, etc., were excellent. A model to follow!

Julio Roca

My beloved Faculty. The oldest in the immense University Center that we have. I lived very emotional moments there and I was lucky to train with great teachers of medicine, they taught me to be a doctor, but above all, to be a person.

Hernán Varas Coria

Academic excellence. It offers students the opportunity to study abroad, both domestically and internationally.
It is ranked 14th out of 100 of the best Argentine universities.
It is evaluated and accredited by Coneau

Mayelica Vicencio

I was vaccinated at the Faculty of Medical Sciences. It was EXCELLENT in every way: the location, the kindness of the people who helped me, the punctuality, and the information about the vaccine. Congratulations.

Facu Nedic

I myself am currently studying at this university, and it's beautiful. From the green spaces and surrounding areas to the different buildings that make up the campus of one of the best universities in Argentina.

Viviana Reynoso

I think it's unfair that admission is so difficult, that even with two years of preparation, no one gets in. Do they want to avoid having the professors there teach those subjects themselves?

Antonio Zanon

Well prepared for this occasion...very organized...clean...excellent care from the medical and nursing staff...good explanation of everything about the vaccine...well administered!!!!!

Elena Paladini

Beware, they charge for postgraduate courses and transfers, don't give you a receipt, and then charge you again. I've already filed a complaint with the Consumer Protection Agency.

Leticia Atencio

The flag presentation ceremony was excellent. And the graduating students' oath-taking ceremony was also very well done; the university has gestures that bring families together.
