Rated 5.0 from 107 Google reviews.
When I approached UM International back in 2011 I was a bit worried about my admission and living in China. Everything went smooth, including issuance of visa, travelling to China and provision of accommodation. Even after admission he was always there to help us in any manner he can. I ended up having an elder brother who is still in contact with me even after 5 years of my graduation.
Starting with my eldest sister, to me and then my two younger ones. There's no other firm or agency I'd trust more. I myself needed some help with documents 2 years after my graduation and this firm was just one call away.
You feel real safety handing over your kids to them for 5 long years and they provide you a complete academic track of your kid.

We advise on the UK, Europe (including Germany, Italy, Cyprus, Georgia and Turkey), China, Russia, Kyrgyzstan, the USA, Canada, Australia and Malaysia, and on MBBS programs in 13 countries. We recommend the destination that fits your marks, budget and goals rather than pushing one country.
