We assess your profile and shortlist Kyrgyz universities based on WDOMS listing, NMC guideline compliance, and 6-year budget. We advise on city — Bishkek has the largest Indian student community and the most developed FMGE coaching infrastructure; Osh is cheaper but has fewer options.
We prepare your complete document set: Class 10 and 12 marksheets with apostille, NEET scorecard, passport copy, and photographs. Where the university requires notarised Russian or Kyrgyz translation of academic records, we arrange this as part of the process.
We submit your application to the university's international department and track the invitation letter, typically issued within 1–3 weeks. Where the university requires an entrance examination in biology and chemistry, we prepare you in advance — these can usually be taken online.
We guide you through the NMC Eligibility Certificate application at nmc.org.in after the invitation letter is received. This is mandatory before departure.
We prepare your Kyrgyz student visa file for the Embassy in New Delhi or Mumbai: original invitation letter, apostilled academic records, medical certificate, and HIV test. Visa processing typically takes 5–10 working days and we track it through to grant.
We brief you before departure on OVIR migration registration (required within 5 days of arrival, managed by the university), hostel check-in, medical insurance registration, and enrollment. Classes in Kyrgyzstan begin in September — we ensure your arrival timing and documentation are aligned.
