Language

B1 English requirement

The general 2026/2027 methodology says candidates for English-taught programmes must have at least B1 English, proven by accepted certificate or by the university test where applicable.

Medicine entrance exam and non-EU file assessment

The UVVG admission platform describes the Medicine entrance exam for Romanian/EU/EEA/Swiss candidates as a physical MCQ test with 60 Biology and Chemistry questions, over 3 hours, with a minimum admission grade of 5.00.

Biology and Chemistry

The exam is subject-based, so applicants need preparation in both Biology and Chemistry.

Physical exam

The exam is listed as physical attendance, not an online test.

Non-EU file assessment

Non-EU candidates use the foreign-citizen methodology, with file assessment and confirmation periods.

For Medimentor positioning, Vasile Goldis Medicine is a Biology/Chemistry exam route for EU-side applicants and a file-planning route for non-EU applicants. The page should keep those two tracks separate.

Curriculum and academic profile

The 2026/2027 enrollment-figures document lists Medicine as a 360-credit accredited route. The public UVVG pages are lighter on detailed English-curriculum breakdown than some larger Romanian universities, so applicants should verify current year-by-year subjects directly with the Faculty of Medicine before enrollment.

Six-year Medicine route

Medicine in Romania is normally a 6-year route; UVVG lists Medicine with 360 credits.

English-taught listing

The 2026/2027 tuition page lists Medicine in English separately under the Faculty of Medicine.

2026/2027 place context

The enrollment figures list a 45 enrollment quota for Medicine and 45 non-EU places.

Arad setting

Arad is a smaller western Romanian city, which can make budgeting easier than in the largest student hubs.
