Parent FAQ

Can my child practice in India later?

Graduates must meet current Indian licensing requirements (including FMGE or NEXT pathways as applicable). IRME explains eligibility before you commit; outcomes depend on the university, country rules, and the student’s exam preparation.

What is the real yearly cost?

Beyond tuition, families should budget for hostel, food, travel, visa, insurance, and personal expenses. IRME suitability counselling uses your budget range to shortlist realistic countries and universities.

Do consultants charge students?

Practices vary. IRME focuses on transparent guidance; always ask for a written fee breakdown, inclusions, and who pays whom before signing.

How do we verify universities?

Check WDOMS listing where applicable, institution status, programme duration, medium of instruction, clinical exposure, and total cost. Compare multiple options and ask for documentation, not only verbal claims.

Who supports after admission?

Confirm local coordinator contact, hostel support, visa renewal help, and escalation if issues arise abroad. Post-admission support should be clear before you pay large instalments.
