Medicine in English at Ovidius University Constanta
Ovidius Medicine program overview
Good for
Students who want a Romanian public-university Medicine program in a coastal city and prefer an application-file admission model over a separate written Biology and Chemistry entrance exam.
Admission model
English B1 competence check plus evaluation of the application file. The foreign-student methodology also requires the correct recognition or acceptance-letter process.
Recognition and licensing
Ovidius is a public Romanian university, but professional licensing after graduation depends on the medical regulator in the country where the graduate wants to practise.

- Certified translations plus apostille or superlegalization where required.

Minimum B1 English check
The Medicine in English page lists an English-language competence test at minimum B1 for both EU and non-EU foreign applicants unless a valid exemption or accepted certificate applies.
File evaluation and applicant category
School record matters
Because admission is file-based, uploaded transcripts, final-exam results and science-subject grades can affect the applicant's competitive profile.
Avoid rule mixing
Romanian-citizen Medicine admission lists a written Biology plus Chemistry-or-Physics exam. That is not the same as the international Medicine in English program described for foreign candidates.
Admission stays conditional
Recognition, Letter of Acceptance, original documents, fee payment and study-contract steps can still affect final enrollment after file evaluation.
