Study Medicine or Dentistry in Slovakia with Medical Doorway

Posted on 05th December 2025 by Medical Doorway

Over the past three years, we have supported a rapidly growing number of students who wish to study medicine in Slovakia or study dentistry in Slovakia. The country is quickly becoming one of the most popular destinations for medical and dental education within the European Union. With highly competitive tuition fees, beautiful and vibrant cities, and exceptional academic and clinical facilities, it is no surprise that we are receiving record numbers of applications.

New for 2026: Five-Year Dentistry Programmes

One of the most significant developments for 2026 is that the Dentistry programmes at both Košice (UPJS) and Bratislava (Comenius University) have transitioned to five-year courses. This enables students to graduate a full year earlier—saving both time and money—and to begin earning an income as a qualified dentist sooner.

Limited Seats to Protect Quality

Both universities cap the number of available seats to ensure that educational quality remains high and, crucially, to guarantee access to world-class clinical placements. This level of structured clinical exposure is something many students miss out on when enrolling at institutions in other parts of Eastern Europe.

Due to demand, it is essential that applicants sit the entrance exams as early as possible. To support this, Medical Doorway is running a record number of exams online, in the UK, and in the UAE. This gives our applicants the opportunity to secure offers before the main competition. In addition, our FREE online learning system provides a significant competitive advantage throughout the admissions process.

Avoid Agent Scams – Work with Trusted Partners

In recent years, we have met numerous students who were misled or charged unnecessary fees by unregulated private agents. The leading universities in Slovakia are aware of this issue and are working closely with Medical Doorway. This provides applicants with a safe, transparent, and fully supported admissions route. We are official partners of both UPJS in Košice and Comenius University in Bratislava.

All applicants receive comprehensive, FREE support, including in-person assistance in Slovakia during enrolment. Our question banks give you the competitive advantage!

We have been working with Slovakian medical faculties for many years and run multiple entrance exams annually for these highly sought-after programmes. In 2026, we will be holding exams in the UK in April and July (before and after A-level examinations) and in Dubai in April.
