What You Should Know

Students must meet all academic requirements, including subject pre-requisites.

For Partner Medical School and Partner Dental School Tracks, students will undergo a matching process to determine where they will complete Phase 2 abroad. This process is managed through a dedicated IMU system.

For detailed information about the matching process, please contact the International Office at IMU.

Students must meet the partner school’s language proficiency score and ensure the validity of the test results before transfer.

Students should check with their home country’s professional bodies or councils regarding programme recognition. IMU does not guarantee that partner schools will be recognized by these bodies.

Students transferring to a partner school are responsible for applying for the appropriate student visa.

The list of partner schools published on the website is subject to change.

Students may have opportunities for housemanship or work overseas, subject to government policies and work visa availability.
