Tuition, fees and living costs

The official 2026/27 admission process page lists yearly tuition at EUR 13,000 for General Medicine and EUR 14,500 for Dentistry. It also states that the student is guaranteed to pay the same tuition fee each academic year for the standard study duration.

Bratislava is usually more expensive than Košice or Martin. For planning, use roughly EUR 650-900 per month before flights, deposits, visa expenses and one-time setup costs.

Recognition and licensing

The Faculty of Medicine states that its General Medicine graduates fulfil the conditions to work in any EU country under Directive 2005/36/EC. For Dentistry, the official applicant page lists the MDDr. degree. In practice, licensing is still destination-specific, so graduates should check the rules in the country where they plan to work.

Student life in Bratislava

Bratislava gives Comenius students a capital-city environment with stronger international transport, more private housing options and more city infrastructure than smaller Slovak university towns. The tradeoff is cost: accommodation planning should start early, especially for students coming from outside the EU who also need visa timing.

Best fit

Students who want a larger Slovak city, more international movement and a medical faculty close to major hospitals and the city centre.

Watch out for

Bratislava housing and daily costs can be higher than Košice or Martin. Compare the full yearly budget, not only tuition.
