Zagazig University Faculty of Medicine requires a minimum NEET score of 137 marks (general category) and 107 marks (SC/ST/OBC). These are NMC-mandated minimums — unlike Indian counseling, Egypt universities do not rank applicants by NEET score. A student scoring 137 and one scoring 500 both qualify equally, making NEET a threshold rather than a ranking tool for admission here.

Zagazig University Faculty of Medicine conducts its MBBS program in English. This means lectures, textbooks, and clinical discussions are all in English — no preparatory language course is needed. The program spans 6 years, including clinical rotations.

Zagazig University Faculty of Medicine is not currently NMC-approved. Without NMC approval, graduates may face challenges registering for the FMGE exam. After receiving the admission letter, the next steps are visa application, forex arrangement, and flight booking — a process that typically takes 4-6 weeks for Egypt.
