What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002282) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 107 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 Colombia 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.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Caren Urbina

It doesn't deserve even one star. I can't believe this university gives certain privileges to students from Ibagué and not to students from other cities or municipalities, who sometimes do deserve to be admitted. What a lack of equality and a bad investment when buying the PIN, because the university even looks run down.

jonathan TOrres

This excellent university boasts a large campus with green areas, courts, and sports facilities, as well as information and academic resources.
It also has a large botanical garden and laboratories, among other facilities, serving students, administrators, and visitors.

Camilo Romero

This is an excellent university for Colombians. The programs offered are of high quality, the professors are highly knowledgeable, and the university has spacious facilities where students can freely interact and learn. Studying at this university is highly recommended.

Djedwin Medina

Excellent, but I'd like to know if it's possible to plant some avocado trees. We've already planted four avocado trees at skate park 3 in a school, also a non-profit project. This is my number; if you can, we'd be very grateful. ? Planted by @DJedwin @DJchikidallas …

Felipe Caro

It is a very broad university, very well prepared, excellent service, excellent academy and excellent teachers, excellent classrooms and you can learn many things and have a lot of experience thanks to the fact that the teaching is very demanding and good.

Luis Suarez Sandoval

This rating is due to its structure. Although it has new facilities, the vast majority are in poor condition. Roofs and walls are prone to collapse. Lack of maintenance is detrimental to these sites, leaving them damaged and impossible to repair.

Lilia Milena Hinestroza C

Alfonso Medina Rey

A university with abundant nature, good civil infrastructure, a large student dining hall, a spectacular theater or concert hall with excellent acoustics, but many people smoking marijuana with no respect for those who don't smoke or do drugs!

JORGE BELTRAN MEDINA

UT has everything it needs to be a center of excellence, but it seriously needs to address its many internal corruption problems. As a graduate of UT, I recognize that this university has the potential to climb in international rankings.

Martha Rocio Peralta Uribe

I give infinite thanks to God the Father, for the opportunity that the university provides to train the dreams and goals of future generations for our country Colombia, may God and the Holy Virgin continue to bless you and thank you …

ronal david salazar vanegas

Honestly, the reception staff leaves much to be desired for young university applicants. They simply arrive and start interrupting every time you ask for information, offering no answers to your questions. I hope they change that.

Mayra Villamil Yepez

What a problem, getting them to answer is very, very difficult to communicate by phone. They should fix that because it's not like it's always been like this. It's not justifiable to go all the way there to ask a question.

Kevin Johan Velandia Barreto

The University of Tolima has a very beautiful campus; it is the largest in the city and the most important university in the region, with several accredited programs and a renewed quality registration.

Andres Felipe Ospina Cifuentes

The University of Tolima is advancing, perhaps not because of its administration, but it has the most dedicated students in the department, and professors who love academia. What a joy to be a UT.

Lobo Rojo

The wear and tear of the facilities and the lack of investment in them are clearly noticeable. You visit this place because you have to, not because there's anything nice to see or experience. …

Edison Ascencio

A large space for the free expression of ideas, along with seminars, courses supporting the arts, Friday bands, and the professional academic development of the region. Main headquarters.

Diego Rodriguez

The best university in the world... I love it so much. It's so beautiful, it's been a long time since I've been here, it's gorgeous. I have so many wonderful memories of this place :')

Jonathan Schneider

Its infrastructure has improved significantly. However, many of its programs still need improvement to reach high quality, especially undergraduate and distance learning programs.

diana tafur

I'm sharing my experience to see if anyone else has had this problem. I've been requesting academic transcripts, grade reports, and course information for over a month. …

Leidy Forigua

It doesn't deserve 5 stars because in many cases it has a better average rating than others and it doesn't pass. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY, TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!

Jorge Hernan Rojas Gonzalez

I like its facilities, lots of trees, a very pleasant atmosphere, and many young people striving to study and become professionals. Thank you.
