What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0000739) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 42 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 3.5★ — 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 Iran (Islamic Republic of) 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.

Dr. Pezhman Pazhouhesh

I have been teaching here for several years. The university is higher in terms of academic level than other universities, but the interesting thing is the behavior and culture of the students there. In my opinion, having taught at other universities, other departments have more polite and humble students.

The officials are awful. They think they are the ones who fell from the elephant's nose. They have a low culture compared to good professors and good students. The registration officer in particular is very rude and foul-mouthed.
