Yes, MBBS in Georgia can be a reasonable option for your daughter if she meets certain criteria for degree recognition in India.

- The university must be recognized by the National Medical Commission (NMC) of India. Only NMC-approved degrees are valid for medical practice in India.
- As of 2026, only private universities in Georgia admit foreign students; state universities are closed to new international admissions.
- The MBBS program is typically six years, including a 12-month internship, which matches NMC requirements.
- After completing her MBBS, your daughter will need to pass the National Exit Test (NExT) to practice medicine in India. NExT is replacing the previous Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE).
- She must also qualify NEET before admission, and clinical training must be completed in the same institution and country.
