Andijan State Medical Institute — Complete MBBS Guide 2026
Andijan State Medical Institute is one of Uzbekistan’s oldest and largest government medical institutions, founded in 1955. It is recognised by NMC and WHO, and was not named in the NMC’s April 2026 advisory on Uzbekistan universities. The 6-year MBBS programme, including Indian food and hostel, costs approximately ₹37.76 lakh. One honest gap: meaningful FMGE outcome data isn’t available yet — worth knowing before you decide.
Andijan doesn’t have the flashy marketing some newer Uzbekistan colleges lean on, mostly because it doesn’t need to — it’s been training doctors since before Uzbekistan’s independence. Here’s what actually matters if you’re considering it.
History & Background
Andijan State Medical Institute was founded in 1955, making it the oldest medical institution in the entire Fergana Valley. It runs four faculties — Therapeutic, Pediatric, Dentistry, and Physicians’ Advanced Training — across roughly 55 departments, and has trained well over 13,000 physicians since it opened. The city itself sits in the Fergana Valley near the Kyrgyzstan border, with a notable footnote for Indian students: it’s the birthplace of Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire in India.
The MBBS programme runs for 6 years — five years of academic study plus a one-year clinical internship — taught in English for international students.
Recognition & Regulatory Standing
Andijan holds NMC (India) and WHO recognition, along with FAIMER and Uzbekistan Ministry of Higher and Secondary Specialized Education approval. It is one of the universities MBBSDirect has independently verified for NMC eligibility, English-medium instruction, and proper clinical training under the FMGL Regulations 2021.
The NMC’s April 2026 advisory on Uzbekistan named three specific institutions — Tashkent State Medical University, Samarkand State Medical University, and Bukhara State Medical Institute. Andijan was not among them.
NMC recognition is reviewed periodically rather than granted once and forgotten. Reconfirm current status with your counsellor before making any payment.
FMGE Performance — An Honest Gap
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) | $6,250 |
| 6-Year Total | $39,750 (≈ ₹37.76 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 Andijan
Andijan offers modern hostel blocks (including Euro-renovated blocks added for international students in 2022), a growing Indian student community, and Indian food available in the city. It’s a calmer, more affordable city than Tashkent — and because it sits in the same Fergana Valley cluster as Fergana Medical Institute, some families visit both universities in a single trip when doing ground research before admission.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Andijan State Medical Institute good for MBBS?
It’s a solid choice on recognition and infrastructure — NMC and WHO recognised, one of Uzbekistan’s oldest medical institutes, not named in any NMC advisory. The one gap is FMGE outcome data, which isn’t yet available in meaningful volume, so you’re choosing it on institutional strength rather than a proven results track record.
Is Andijan on the NMC’s advisory list?
No. The NMC’s April 2026 advisory named Tashkent State Medical University, Samarkand State Medical University, and Bukhara State Medical Institute. Andijan was not included.
What is Andijan’s FMGE pass rate?
There isn’t sufficient data to report. Very few or no students from Andijan have appeared in the official FMGE results so far, unlike some other Uzbekistan universities. This is worth weighing honestly rather than ignoring.
What is the total 6-year MBBS cost at Andijan?
Approximately $39,750 (around ₹37.76 lakh), including tuition, hostel, Indian food, visa, and police registration. MBBSDirect’s service charge of ₹1,45,000 is separate.
How far is Andijan from Fergana?
Both sit in Uzbekistan’s Fergana Valley and are commonly visited together on the same trip — a practical option if you’re also considering Fergana Medical Institute.
