MBBS in
Lithuania

Lithuania is the third Baltic state in the MBBS portfolio and offers a genuinely compelling combination of an EU degree, English-medium instruction, NMC approval, and a total 6-year cost that directly competes with Estonia and Latvia. The Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU) in Kaunas, Lithuania's second-largest city and its medical capital. LSMU is one of the largest medical universities in the Baltic states and has been offering English-medium programmes for international students for decades.
Kaunas is a pleasant surprise for most students, larger than Tartu (Estonia) but more manageable and affordable than Riga (Latvia), with a well-preserved Old Town, a thriving café culture, and a student population that gives the city genuine energy. Lithuania has the largest economy of the three Baltic states, and Kaunas, in particular, is undergoing significant urban regeneration, having been the European Capital of Culture in 2022. The quality of life is good, costs are low by EU standards, and the academic environment at LSMU is well-organised for international students.
FMGE pass rates for LSMU graduates are in the 37–44% range, comparable to Latvia and Estonia. Lithuania is a Schengen and EU member, offering the standard EU advantages: eligibility for a European medical licence after graduation and Schengen zone travel throughout your studies.
At ₹50–65 Lakhs total over 6 years, Lithuania offers one of the most affordable genuine EU MBBS degrees, comparable to Estonia, slightly below Latvia, and significantly below Poland or the Czech Republic.
