Entrance tests in Cyprus.

University-specific selection

For the University of Nicosia six-year MD, the published route is school qualifications, English evidence and an online interview. Do not confuse it with the university’s graduate-entry test route.

Admission sources checked . Each requirement retains its programme and intake scope.

An admission test, language requirement and medical licensing examination serve different purposes. For Indian citizens and OCI applicants, NEET eligibility is a separate India-return planning requirement; it does not automatically replace the destination university’s selection.

  5. Arrange entry and residence

    Use the destination’s long-stay study route for your nationality and legal country of residence. An Indian passport holder living in Oman must follow the consular jurisdiction for their residence; a tourist visa is not the degree-study route.

A six-year MD, with clinical-location choices

The degree is taught in English. Admission considers academic and other requirements; meeting minimum grades alone does not automatically secure an unconditional offer. The university offers clinical study locations beyond Cyprus, so the exact location matters to licensing as well as cost.

Build the budget around your clinical site

The published tuition is €24,000 per year and the Nicosia living estimate is at least €12,000 a year. Application, insurance, visa/residence and other charges are additional. International clinical placements attract location-specific supplements; the main programme page gives the current schedule.

Before reserving a place

Get a written answer on where all clinical years will take place, who supervises them, whether an internship is separately available, and which regulator can register a non-citizen graduate. A directory listing or European qualification framework is not a substitute for those answers.

Indian students living in India or Oman

Nationality, residence and the intended country of practice are separate questions. Indian citizens and OCI applicants should check the NEET/foreign-study rules before admission, including where they completed school. A student residence permit in Cyprus is not permission to practise medicine.

Quick admission answers for Cyprus.

Do I need UCAT for Nicosia’s six-year MD?

Its published six-year requirements list school qualifications, English evidence and an interview, rather than UCAT. The UCAT partner listing refers specifically to graduate-entry medicine.

Sources: Nicosia: six-year MD admissions ↗UCAT: international partner-course scope ↗

Does meeting the minimum school grade guarantee an unconditional offer?

No. Nicosia reviews academic and non-academic conditions together. The interview and the broader assessment still matter, even when minimum grades have been achieved.
