Kazakhstan-specific questions

The questions Indian parents keep asking.

Honest answers. We'd rather lose you to a better-fit option than mis-sell a degree to a student it doesn't suit.

Is Kazakhstan safe for international students?
Yes, Kazakhstan is one of the safest and most stable countries in Central Asia. It has a long history of hosting international students and provides a peaceful environment for education. NGI maintains a local support team to assist students with any needs.
How is the weather in Kazakhstan?
Kazakhstan has a continental climate. Winters can be cold (averaging -10°C to -15°C), but all buildings and hostels are centrally heated to 22°C. Summers are warm and pleasant, ideal for outdoor activities.
Is the course entirely in English?
Yes, the MBBS program for international students is taught 100% in English for the full 6-year duration. Local language classes are provided to help with daily interactions and clinical rotations in hospitals.
Can I work while studying?
The primary focus is on medical education, which is intensive. While part-time work is not officially permitted on a student visa, students find the cost of living very affordable compared to other international destinations.
What about Indian food — I'm vegetarian / Jain.
Most universities have dedicated Indian mess facilities providing both North and South Indian meals. Pure vegetarian and Jain food options are available and handled with care by Indian cooks.
Can I practice in the US or UK after graduating?
Yes, graduates are eligible for USMLE (USA) and PLAB (UK) exams as the universities are listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS) and recognized by ECFMG. NGI provides guidance for students aiming for global residencies.
Are there any hidden costs?
