Before you apply: five checks for this college

  1. Confirm the World Directory entry F0002620 yourself at wdoms.org; the entry describes the school as it reported itself, not its recognition anywhere.
  2. Ask the medical council or health ministry of Mexico whether the school is currently recognised and whether its graduates are being registered this year.

  5. Search the agent, consultancy or website you are dealing with on the fraud alerts page before paying anything.

What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002620) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 1 rated student review on file here, averaging 3.8★ — read the full text below before deciding.

Verify before you pay anyone

  • Only a handful of reviews are on file so far — enough for a first impression, not enough to generalise. Try to speak directly with more than one current student before deciding.
  • Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Mexico 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.
