China Study Abroad Questions

Indian students need the X1 student visa to study MBBS in China. You apply for it using the admission letter and the JW201 or JW202 form that your university typically arranges through the authorities once your admission is confirmed, so wait for those papers before starting the visa process.

Annual tuition for MBBS in China for Indian students commonly falls between RMB 21,000 and RMB 48,000. Total tuition over the six-year course typically adds up to a much larger sum, so treat this as a general estimate and confirm exact fees with your shortlisted university.
