Language

B2 English requirement

The 2026 methodology requires minimum B2 language proof for English/French programs unless the candidate completed secondary studies in that language or another official exemption applies.

Dossier evaluation, not a Biology-Chemistry exam

UMF Cluj says international admission is based on evaluation of documents attesting school performance and personal achievements. Appendix 4 lists broad criteria such as high-school performance, Biology/Chemistry/Physics baccalaureate subjects, previous medical or related studies, language proof, volunteering, medical-field work and recommendation letters.

No separate entrance exam

Unlike several dental routes in Europe, this international English route is not a separate Biology/Chemistry written exam.

Science profile still matters

Biology, Chemistry and Physics can still matter inside the academic-performance evaluation criteria.

Final selection

The selection results are final and cannot be contested under the 2026 methodology.

For Medimentor positioning, UMF Cluj Dental Medicine is an application-file strategy route. Students need accurate document planning, timing and backup comparisons more than exam-day tactics.

Tuition fees and budget

The 2026 international admission page lists tuition at EUR 10,000 per academic year, a EUR 300 non-refundable file processing fee and a 50% tuition confirmation payment. Non-EU candidates need to pay the full first-year tuition to obtain the Romanian type D study visa.
