What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0000365) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 59 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 Brazil 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.

Real reviews from students.

BETOMUSIC

There are few places for the many people seeking care. In the morning, the receptionists are not friendly; even in the cold or rain, they schedule appointments for 6:30 am, but they only open at 7:00 am. They lack the humanity to open earlier to accommodate more people. However, the doctors' care is very good.

Fernanda Freitas

Unfortunately, I used the UPA (Emergency Care Unit) service, ended up spending the whole day there, and to make matters worse, there was a shift change and the team that took over spent more time going around in circles than attending to patients. It was regrettable.

José Roberto e Kátia Marina Bom Jesus

This is where I graduated as a doctor 51 years ago. Everything I've done, I learned here! (Trá-cá-trá!! - This last part is a colloquial expression and doesn't translate directly. It's a colloquial expression meaning something like "Tack-a-tat!" or "Tack-a-tat!")
