What we can confirm

  • Listed in the WHO World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS ID F0005569) — you can verify this independently on wdoms.org rather than take any agent's word for it.
  • 70 rated student reviews on file here, averaging 4.6★ — 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 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.

💬 Student Reviews

Real reviews from students.

Donald Hessler

I left this institution after receiving a "confidential" message stating that the cumulative grade average of all my students had to be no more than 7. In other words, I was forced to give failing grades to students who didn't deserve them. The CAADI, however, is very good and imposed no such restrictions on me.

INGENII FACTURACION

It's disgusting that they have MINIMAL DRIVING EDUCATION, obstructing traffic and double-parking! Every day, day and night, they have to fight with parents who can't pull over or stop somewhere else where they won't be in the way. Lots of money, but NO DRIVING EDUCATION.

Diana Rivera

As a mother, I would have loved for my son to receive more humane treatment from some teachers, but that wasn't the case. This institution should be very careful in selecting its teachers, with a primary focus on teaching, accompanied by general empathy.

Dante Reyes

I went to a chess event that was supposed to start at 8 pm. I thought I arrived early at 7 pm, but it turned out it started at 8 am. I'm giving it 5 stars because one of the attendants was very kind to me, chatted with me, and even took this picture.

Excellent school, worth every penny. If you study here, take advantage of it; don't make your parents waste money.

High level of education, however, they double or triple park to drop off/pick up young people. They have more space on one side and obstruct a major thoroughfare. Avenue
