MBBS in China After FSc Pre-Medical Step by Step Process

Step 1 – Decide Why You’re Choosing MBBS in China

Before you even apply, you must be clear about your goal. Think about your future — Will you work in Pakistan, Gulf countries, UK, or USA after MBBS?

Understand the benefits of MBBS in China:

• Lower tuition than Pakistani private colleges.
• Internationally recognized degrees (WHO, PMDC, ECFMG).
• English-medium programs available.
• Talk to seniors who are already studying there.

Avoid confusion later — Some students waste money by applying without research and then change countries.

Example: A student from Lahore wanted to work in Pakistan after MBBS, so he chose a PMDC-approved Chinese university. This saved him from recognition problems later.

Step 2 – Research & Shortlist Universities

Don’t just apply to the first university you hear about.

• Check recognition: PMDC list & MOE list for English-medium MBBS.
• Compare tuition fees: 18,000–50,000 RMB/year (~PKR 700,000–2,000,000).
• Look at location: Big cities are expensive; smaller cities are cheaper.
• Check facilities: Hostel, halal food, labs, libraries.
• Ask about language: Fully English taught? Clinical years with translation?

Step 3 – Prepare Your Documents

You’ll need attested and complete documents before applying. Missing papers delay admission.

Essential Documents:

• Passport (valid for at least 1 year)
• FSc certificate & marksheets (IBCC & MOFA attested)
• Matric certificate (attested)
• MDCAT result card (if required)
• Passport-size photos (12–18, white background)
• Medical certificate
• Police clearance certificate
• University application form
• Bank statement (sometimes required)

Step 4 – Apply to the University

You have two options:

• Direct Application: University website, form, documents, application fee.
• Through a Consultant: Like Soft Consultants, who help choose the right university, check PMDC approval, and handle paperwork.

Step 5 – Wait for Your Conditional Admission Letter

The university will check your documents. If you qualify, they’ll issue a conditional offer letter (accepted after fee payment).

Example: A student from Karachi got her letter in 7 days after applying; another from Faisalabad waited 3 weeks because his documents were incomplete.

Step 6 – Pay Initial Fees

Most universities ask for a registration fee or part of first-year tuition before final admission. Payment is usually via bank transfer.

Step 7 – Receive JW202 or JW201 Form

This is the official Chinese government visa form for international students. Without it, you can’t apply for a student visa. The university will send it by DHL or FedEx.

Step 8 – Apply for Chinese Student Visa

Go to the Chinese Embassy in Islamabad or Chinese Consulate in Karachi.

Submit:

• Admission letter
• JW202/JW201 form
• Passport
• Visa application form (V201)
• Medical certificate

Visa Types:

• X1 Visa: For studies longer than 6 months (MBBS students need this).
• X2 Visa: For studies less than 6 months.

Step 9 – Arrange Travel

Book your flight to the city near your university. Airlines like PIA, China Southern, and Air China are common.

Pack essentials:

• Warm clothes (if going to northern China)
• Medicines from Pakistan
• Copies of all documents
