Introduction: Why Choose MBBS in Mongolia?

Keep the dream of becoming a Doctor alive

Studying MBBS abroad has become one of the most sought-after pathways for Indian students aspiring to become successful doctors in India or abroad. Every year, lakhs of students dream of securing a medical seat. Each year, more than 20 lakh Indian students appear for NEET. With around 1.29 lakh seats in India, fewer than 6% of students get a seat. The remaining students either have to make the difficult decision to keep repeating NEET in the hope of beating the insanely high competition, or give up on becoming a doctor entirely. However, there is another way! If you are willing to put in the hard work, which is a prerequisite for becoming a doctor, then you should choose to study MBBS abroad in a top destination like Mongolia.

Mongolia – Top MBBS abroad destination

Among the many countries offering medical education overseas, studying MBBS in Mongolia has rapidly emerged as a top choice — especially for students seeking world-class medical programs at affordable fees, internationally recognised degrees, strong clinical exposure, and a supportive learning environment. Mongolia is a Buddhist country offering a 6-year medical course in English medium.

MBBS in Mongolia – Best Alternative to Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan & Uzbekistan

In recent years, medical universities in popular MBBS abroad destinations like Russia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and even Georgia have started accepting thousands of Indian students each intake. This raises a serious question about the quality of education in such universities. There are many universities where hundreds of students are expelled each year. Moreover, students do not get hostel facilities and do not get proper food at the Indian mess in such universities. These are all real problems that Indian students face, especially at many Russian medical universities. MBBS in Mongolia is the answer to all the problems Indian students face while studying MBBS abroad.

MBBS in Mongolia has earned an excellent reputation for its 6-year MBBS program, fully taught in English, with modern infrastructure, clinical practice opportunities, and a safe, multicultural campus environment.

Before we dive into specifics about Etugen University, let’s look at why Mongolia ranks among the best destinations for Indian students seeking MBBS education abroad.

🌍 1. Globally Recognised Medical Degree

Mongolian medical universities, including Etugen University, are listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS) and recognised by international medical bodies.

Indian students will be eligible to appear for FMGE, as the medical course at Etugen University fulfils the conditions laid down under the Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate Regulations (as per the Ministry of Education of Mongolia).

💰 2. Affordable Tuition and Living Costs

Compared to private medical colleges in India and many European or American institutions, medical education in Mongolia is considerably more affordable:

📝 NEET Requirement

As per the National Medical Commission (NMC) of India, all Indian students must qualify NEET to be eligible for medical studies abroad and for returning to practice in India. The NEET result is valid for 3 years for MBBS abroad.

The National Medical Commission of India introduced the Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate Regulations (FMGL Regulations) in November 2021. If you are an Indian passport holder who wishes to study MBBS abroad and then appear for the licensing exam in India (FMGE), you must fulfil all the conditions set out in the FMGL Regulations. Unfortunately, as of 1st March 2026, NMC has failed to inform us which countries or universities are currently fulfilling the regulations. This has led to uncertainty about the validity of medical degrees from all countries abroad.

Therefore, we are dependent on the university/appropriate government body for an answer. Regarding Mongolia’s MBBS degree, the Ministry of Education of Mongolia has stated that, in their view, the medical degree of Etugen University in Mongolia fulfils the conditions laid down under the FMGL Regulations.

Mongolia, officially known as the State of Mongolia, is a landlocked country in East and Central Asia nestled between Russia to the north and China to the south, east, and west. With a rich cultural heritage shaped by the legacy of the Mongol Empire and the legendary Genghis Khan, Mongolia uniquely blends tradition with modern development.

Mongolia is a secular country, meaning there is freedom of religion and no official state religion. People are generally respectful of different faiths, and international students do not face religious restrictions. The majority of Mongolians follow Tibetan Buddhism, which became prominent in Mongolia during the 16th century. Mongolian society is:

• Traditionally spiritual but not rigidly religious

• Respectful toward foreigners

• Focused more on education and social life than religious enforcement

The capital city, Ulaanbaatar, is the country’s economic and educational hub — home to the largest universities, modern hospitals, research institutions, and multicultural student communities. Ulaanbaatar has a population of around 18 lakh. Etugen University is located in Ulaanbaatar.

Indian time is 2.5 hours behind Ulaanbaatar (e.g., 9:00 AM IST = 11:30 AM ULAT). The currency of Mongolia is Mongolian Tugrik. A flight between Delhi and Ulaanbaatar takes around 14 hours with 1 stop. Common routes:

• Via Delhi → Beijing → Ulaanbaatar

• Via Delhi → Seoul → Ulaanbaatar

Mongolia experiences a continental climate:

• Summer (June–August): Warm days and cool nights

• Winter (November–March): Extreme cold, dry, and snowy, temperatures can drop to -20°C to -35°C

Students should prepare for cold winter conditions, particularly if coming from warmer climates in India.

According to World Population Review, Mongolia ranks as the 7th safest country in Asia and the 37th Safest Country in the World. Ulaanbaatar is generally safe for international students. There are separate hostels available for boys and girls, which is another plus.
