Fergana Medical Institute of Public Health — Complete MBBS Guide 2026
Fergana Medical Institute of Public Health is MBBSDirect’s top recommendation for MBBS in Uzbekistan in 2026. It recorded the highest FMGE pass rate of any Uzbekistan university in its very first appearing batch — 51% in December 2025. The full 6-year programme, including Indian food, costs approximately ₹37.28 lakh. The university is NMC recognised and was not named in the NMC’s April 2026 advisory that flagged three other Uzbekistan institutions.
Fergana isn’t the biggest name on the Uzbekistan list, and it isn’t the cheapest either. What it has is something harder to fake — a real, verified FMGE number. Here’s the full picture before you decide.
History & Background
Fergana Medical Institute of Public Health sits in Fergana, a mid-sized city in the Fergana Valley in eastern Uzbekistan. The institute grew out of Uzbekistan’s push in the early 1990s to expand medical training capacity beyond Tashkent, and today runs a standard 6-year MBBS programme — five years of academic study followed by a year of clinical internship — taught entirely in English for international students.
Recognition & Regulatory Standing
Fergana Medical Institute holds NMC (National Medical Commission, India) recognition, is listed with the WHO’s World Directory of Medical Schools, and is one of the universities MBBSDirect has independently verified for English-medium instruction, hostel facilities, and proper clinical training under the NMC’s FMGL Regulations 2021.
In April 2026, the NMC issued an advisory naming three specific Uzbekistan institutions — Tashkent State Medical University, Samarkand State Medical University, and Bukhara State Medical Institute — for compliance concerns. Fergana was not named in that advisory.
NMC recognition status is reviewed periodically, not a one-time approval. Always ask your counsellor to reconfirm current status before paying any fees.
FMGE Performance
Fergana’s first-ever batch appeared for FMGE in December 2025 and recorded a 51% pass rate (63 out of 123 students) — the highest of any Uzbekistan university that session, ahead of Tashkent Medical Academy (47%, and on a genuine three-year upward trend from 11% in 2023) and Bukhara State Medical Institute (36%, down from 48% the year before).
One strong batch is a good sign, not a guarantee. This number needs to hold up in 2026 and beyond before it can be called a consistent benchmark — worth keeping in mind rather than treating it as a settled fact.
Fees for Indian Students
All Uzbekistan fees are billed in US Dollars. Figures below are calculated at approximately ₹95/USD (June 2026 rate) and already include tuition, hostel, Indian food, visa, and police registration.
| Year | Amount (USD) |
|---|---|
| Year 1 (all-inclusive) | $8,500 |
| Year 2 – 6 (annual) | $6,150 |
| 6-Year Total | $39,250 (≈ ₹37.28 lakh) |
MBBSDirect’s service charge (₹1,45,000) is separate. Actual INR outflow depends on the exchange rate at the time of each year’s payment.
Life at Fergana
The biggest quality-of-life advantage here is that Indian food is arranged at the institutional level, already folded into the fee — no separate budgeting or self-cooking required. Indian students have been at Fergana since 2019, so new batches join an established senior community rather than starting from zero. Fergana itself is a smaller, calmer city than Tashkent or Samarkand, which most parents find reassuring for a first-time-abroad 17–18 year old.
