New foreign students: only within places the Government approves each year. Under Government Ordinance No 437 (8 Sep 2026), a state university can admit a foreign student only within the number of students the Government of Georgia approves for that academic year and programme. The facts on this page describe the degree itself.

For 2026/27 the Government approved 20 places on this university's Medical Doctor (English-language) programme. Georgian and foreign students share that number, across admission with and without Georgia's national exams; it is not a separate quota for foreigners (Government Resolution No 55, as amended 17 Aug 2026).

  • Internship at the same universityMet · How we knowIndia asks: 1 year at the same university

    Step we take: The pages we read for this university don't give an internship length. Georgia's national rule places the internship in the final (6th) year of the degree, and a year is 12 months.

    Step we take: The pages we read don't say where the internship is done. Georgia places it inside the degree, so it is at the university that awards the degree.

    Step we take: Georgian law gives this right to graduates of state-accredited institutions, so this rule also needs the programme's accreditation, as recorded by NCEQE, to be valid on the day of our latest check.
