Youjiang Medical University for Nationalities(YMUN)

Yes. YMUN is PMDC approved and Pakistani graduates are eligible to sit the NRE/NLE licensing examination after completing the 6-year MBBS. YMUN is also WHO listed, ECFMG recognised, WFME recognised and FAIMER listed. Always verify the current PMC NOC status at the time of your application.

No. YMUN is not on China's MOE list of 45 universities authorised for fully English-medium MBBS. The programme is English-medium (Year 1: Chinese language foundation). However, YMUN has been awarded Excellent University in Undergraduate Education by the MOE - a formal recognition of academic standards even though it is not on the English MBBS list.

YMUN uses a two-stage HSK requirement. HSK Level 3 must be passed in Year 1. HSK Level 4 is required before internship or graduation - crucially, HSK-4 is NOT required in Year 1. This gives students the full programme duration to achieve HSK-4 and is one of the most gradual language requirements among non-MOE universities. YMUN also provides Chinese language tutoring throughout the programme.

Yes. Every enrolled international student receives a guaranteed 2,000 RMB annual scholarship from YMUN at year-end based on performance. The top 3 students of each batch receive an additional award on top of this. This is one of the most student-accessible scholarship arrangements among Chinese non-MOE universities and is not limited to a small percentage of top performers.

The total 6-year MBBS cost is approximately RMB 1,60,700 (Year 1: 34,700 + Years 2-6: 25,200 x 5). The 1,500 RMB application fee and 2,500 RMB security deposit are separate (deposit deducted from Year 1 on arrival). Food typically costs 1,000-1,200 RMB per month and is excluded.

3-sharing rooms are 3,500 RMB/year and are included in the standard fee package. 2-sharing rooms are 5,000 RMB/year; students allocated a 2-sharing room pay an additional 1,500 RMB/year directly to the university. Room type allocation depends on availability.

Yes. The Year 6 internship can be completed in China at YMUN's affiliated hospitals or in the student's home country. Pakistani students completing the internship at home should ensure the hospitals are PMDC approved.

Yes. Halal food and a Muslim canteen are easily accessible on the YMUN campus, supporting Muslim students from Pakistan, South Asia and beyond.

Baise is the birthplace of the 1929 Baise Uprising led by Deng Xiaoping, giving it deep historical significance in China. It sits at the junction of Guangxi, Yunnan and Guizhou, with the Youjiang River running through the city and dramatic karst mountains surrounding it. The subtropical climate is mild and the city is well-connected by air, rail, road and river. YMUN's location makes it the anchor medical institution for an entire cross-border region spanning China and Vietnam.

Indian students are welcome to apply, but Indian applicants should note that non-MOE Chinese medical universities generally do not meet current NMC (India) criteria for FMGE/NExT eligibility under the 2021 NMC Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate regulations. Most Indian students seeking guaranteed NMC compliance choose MOE-listed Chinese universities instead. Anyone considering this university must independently verify the latest NMC requirements directly with the National Medical Commission before applying. NEET (50th percentile General / 40th percentile reserved) remains mandatory for Indian students studying MBBS abroad in any case.

Bangladeshi students may apply, but applicants should note that non-MOE Chinese programmes are not commonly included on BMDC's recognised foreign institutions list, which predominantly covers MOE-listed Chinese medical universities. Bangladeshi students should verify the current BMDC list directly before applying. Most Bangladeshi students seeking guaranteed BMDC recognition choose MOE-listed Chinese universities instead. SSC and HSC certificates with Physics, Chemistry and Biology are the core academic requirements.
