Appreciation –Medical Students from Germany

"Our first degrees were in Biochemistry and Microbiology respectively. After 2 years of work, we still had the urge of becoming medical doctors. We began to look at quality, internationally accredited and affordable medical schools all around the world that accept transfer students into 2nd,3rd or 4th year of study. Our searches lead us to SMA and they recommend to us – the Romanian Medical School. The SMA Representatives have been a huge benefit from the time we applied, to the time we arrived at our University city in Romania. They helped us settle down – with the accommodation, school registration, and the students’ residence permit process. Although the course is hard work there are plenty of opportunities to relax with in Romania, clubs, several tourist destinations and sports. Overall, we believe that the opportunities applying through the StudyMedAbroad team (SMA) are a lot and we would recommend their service to anyone."

Jeremy and Michael Klingemann , class of 2012

Safety and Security

Romania remains largely free of crime. The Romanian equivalent to the “911” emergency line is 112. English-speaking operators are available.

While most crimes in Romania are nonviolent and nonconfrontational, crimes do occur in which people get hurt. Reports of sexual assault are uncommon; however, to be safe, be vigilant, especially at night and in situations where there is alcohol. Although racial prejudice exists in Romania, especially toward those who look like Roma (“gypsies”), hate crimes are rare.

The cities we send our students to study in are considered "university towns", with a very high population of students, both foreign and local. Romania is a land of many towns, villages and small cities, all of which do not have universities. Romanian students, like foreign students, flock to "university towns" for their academic requirements.
