✈️ Before you fly to Saudi Arabia

The checks that separate a safe admission from a scam. Do them yourself — not through the agent.

Before paying anyone

  • College is in the World Directory of Medical Schools (every college page here shows its WDOMS ID).
  • Offer letter confirmed by email from the university's own domain.
  • Fee structure in writing; tuition paid only to the university's bank account, receipt on university letterhead.
  • Agent/consultancy name checked on Check before you pay.
  • Originals stay with you — copies only.

Documents & money

  • Passport valid 18+ months; visa; 6–8 passport photos; attested school-leaving certificates; your entrance-exam result if your home regulator requires one (NEET, MDCAT, etc.); medical certificate; police clearance if required.
  • Confirmation that this university is accepted by your own country's medical regulator — the list differs for India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Nigeria, Malaysia and others.
  • Money on a forex card plus a little cash — never large cash handed to anyone "for the university".
  • Travel + health insurance that covers Saudi Arabia; a copy of every document in your email.

Landing safely

  • Know who is meeting you and confirm it with the university or a verified student — not only the agent.
  • See the hostel before paying a deposit; ask a current student whether it's the real one.
  • Register with your country's embassy or consulate after arrival (many run a student portal); save its emergency number — stranded students in the cases we've published got out through their embassy.
  • Local SIM, bank account, and the campus map in your first week — a senior can do this with you in an afternoon.

🛡️ Safety & expenses in Saudi Arabia

We don't publish a made-up "safety score" — official sources and real verification beat a number nobody can audit. Here's what to actually check.

🚨 Emergency numbers

Search "Saudi Arabia emergency number" on arrival and save it — we don't have a verified number for this country yet.

Also save your home country's nearest embassy or consulate contact number before you fly, and register with them if your country offers it (e.g. India's MADAD portal, the UK's FCDO registration).

🧭 Before you go

  • Check your home government's official travel advisory for Saudi Arabia — search it here rather than trust a consultancy's summary of it.
  • Keep scanned copies of your passport, visa, and admission letter in cloud storage, separate from the originals.
  • Get travel/health insurance that explicitly covers the country and duration of your course.
  • Learn the area around your campus and hostel in daylight before relying on it at night.
  • Avoid unlicensed taxis or "guides" who approach you at the airport — arrange pickup through the university where possible.

💰 Verify these expenses yourself

We don't publish estimated costs here — they date quickly and vary by city and lifestyle. Before you commit money, get these in writing directly from the university, not only from an agent:

  • Full multi-year tuition, and whether it can increase year to year
  • Hostel/accommodation fees and what's included (food, utilities, wifi)
  • One-time costs: visa, admission/registration fees, health checks
  • Approximate flight cost for your route and how often you'd realistically travel home
  • Health insurance premium required for your visa or enrollment
