Sechenov University (First Moscow State Medical University)

⚠️ IMPORTANT PRACTICAL ADVISORY (factual, neutral): Since 2022, extensive international sanctions affect prospective international students in Russia. PAYMENTS: many Russian banks are disconnected from SWIFT — paying tuition/living costs from abroad is difficult or impossible from many countries. TRAVEL: air connectivity is heavily restricted and several governments advise against or caution travel to Russia. DEGREE RECOGNITION: Russia was suspended from and has announced withdrawal from the Bologna Process/EHEA (2022-2023) — you MUST verify whether a Russian degree will be recognised by the relevant authority in your country (or where you plan to work/study) BEFORE enrolling. Verify the current situation from official sources before making any decision. AlmiStudy provides this so you can decide for yourself; it is not a political statement. Heritage to 1758, Sechenov University is Russia's oldest and leading medical university (~19,000 students), historically a very large host of international medical students via English-medium and Russian-medium MD programmes. (The practical advisory is especially important — international students must verify payment routes and whether the degree will be recognised by the medical licensing authority in their own country BEFORE enrolling.)

Always confirm a university's current accreditation with the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an endorsement.
