About Lithuania

Lithuania is a member of the European Union, the Council of Europe, the Eurozone, the Schengen Agreement, NATO, and the OECD. The sheer number of big universities in this small nation (area-wise) says a lot about the safety and ease of life for students. Lithuanian universities receive hundreds of foreign students every year. Naturally, you may expect everything to be student-friendly.

MBBS in Lithuania for international students

Education is a major pillar in the financial infrastructure of this culturally rich country. Every year, numerous foreign students come to Lithuania to take admissions, bringing in lots of foreign exchange.

There are quite a few Indian students who go to Lithuania to study medicine. After graduation in medicine, you may opt for appearing in USMLE, PLAB, etc., and get your medical PG. You may appear in the NEXT exam and do medical PG or practice in India.

MBBS in Lithuania: Duration of MBBS/MD

Like all universities in European countries, Lithuanian medical universities also offer a 6-year program, referred to as MD.

The duration of MBBS/MD in all European universities is 6 years. This uniformity is due to the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) prevailing in Europe.

Medical Universities in Lithuania

There are many universities in Lithuania, but only 2 of them feature in WDOMS. They are:*

University	Medium of Instruction (as per WDOMS)
Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Faculty of medicine	Lithuanian/English
Vilnius University Faculty of Medicine	Lithuanian/English

Keep in mind that there are many foreign education agents in India that promote other Lithuanian universities, saying their medium of instruction is English. Be careful and choose from these two, as the WDOMS vouches that the medium of instruction in these 2 is English.

MBBS in Lithuania Eligibility

The eligibility in the Lithuanian universities varies, and the above 2 universities also look for different criteria. The main difference is in the requirement for PCB scores in Class XII. The Lithuanian University of Health Sciences Faculty of Medicine entertains applications with a minimum Class XII score of 50% in PCB.

However, to apply to the Vilnius University Faculty of Medicine, you need to have a minimum score of 80% in PCB in Class XII.

Other eligibility criteria include your age, which must be between 17 and 25 years old. You must have qualified for NEET.

Most importantly, Lithuanian universities ask for TOEFL or IELTS scores at this point in time. However, this criterion is under review, and you will need to confirm at the time of application.
