What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002660) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 72 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.5★ — 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 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.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Rodrigo bouzada

Excellent college, with a variety of courses, excellent professors, excellent infrastructure, good prices, and it provides a great social service to the population of Itaperuna and the entire northwest of Rio de Janeiro state. Affordable prices, it has all the federal government incentive programs. High-tech laboratories.

Adelia Franceschini

What a disgrace, the discriminatory chanting of your students against their opponents!!! You really need to educate these students! It's an embarrassing level of incivility for human beings in general, imagine for an educational institution! It's on G1, you can check it out. I was embarrassed for them.

Alice Barroso

Terrible institution! They only think about the money that medicine provides to maintain the college, but the students are treated like trash!!! Some professors think they are gods, they mistreat the students, the students are repressed and afraid!!!

Mateus Alves Gomes

Terrible teaching, awful quality, sometimes they don't even take attendance, many students only show up on exam days, and the MEC (Ministry of Education) ratings are the worst possible. I would never recommend it, the worst experience I've ever had.

Regarding the UNIG Veterinary Polyclinic, I have nothing but praise for the veterinarians and staff. My dog ??received excellent care during consultations and surgeries.

Yanni

It's a place where if you have money, your future is guaranteed. If that's not relevant, one of the other problems is the lack of gyms and PokéStops for Pokémon Go.

Prev Social

Students suffer moral harassment from teachers. Students who carry a surname are privileged by the institution. Lack of equality among the student body.
