What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0002905) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 105 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 Ecuador 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.

Jorge luis Garces

What can I tell you about a state university? There's corruption, like everywhere else, from people who can't be called professionals because they use their degrees to harass female students. I'm talking about... the... Faculty of... Judiciary, because that happened to my child.

Sebastian Solis

An accredited university that offers adequate infrastructure and student recreation spaces, has laboratories, auditoriums, a coliseum, a stadium, courts, a swimming pool, a gymnasium, and teachers trained to impart knowledge in order to train the best professionals....

Javier Cisneros

Dear everyone, the level of corruption, theft, and irregularities that exist in FISEI UTA postgraduate programs is abysmal, and my recommendation is that under no circumstances should you study for a master's degree in FISEI postgraduate …

María Checa

Good afternoon, it is very unfortunate that the admissions process for July 2025 is being required. They are demanding a new ID card, despite the government's directive to validate existing ID cards due to problems with the civil registry.

Indira Cataleya Perez Tulcán

I'm giving one star because they require me to give at least one. I don't know who added that phone number, but it's a cell phone number belonging to a private individual, who has nothing to do with that institution whatsoever.

guillermo fernando oñate gavidia

It is quite striking and has spaces very suitable for the students who will leave a legacy at this high-level university, in addition to having its large swimming pool open to all its students and other people
