Ararat University - MBBS Fees, Admission & Eligibility 2026

Ararat University holds NMC approval, WHO listing — the recognitions that directly determine whether your degree is valid for medical practice. For Indian medical students, NMC recognition is non-negotiable — without it, a degree cannot be used for FMGE registration regardless of how highly ranked the university is in Armenia.

Ararat University's FMGE pass rate of 75% is a more direct measure of training quality than any global ranking. FMGE results reflect how well a university's curriculum and clinical training prepare students for the Indian licensing exam — something rankings based on research output or web visibility cannot capture.

Ararat University operates as a teaching hospital, serving 7,000 students (120 MBBS seats per batch).

Founded in 2002, Ararat University is a public institution with 24 years of operation in Armenia. As a public university, it typically benefits from state funding, which supports infrastructure maintenance and faculty retention.

Ararat University delivers its MBBS program in English. English-medium instruction in Armenia eliminates the language barrier that affects clinical training and FMGE preparation at non-English universities.
