Islamabad – The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) has officially set a fee cap for private medical colleges in Pakistan, addressing concerns over skyrocketing tuition costs. Reports indicate that some institutions were demanding up to PKR 3.5 million per year, making MBBS and BDS education unaffordable for many aspiring doctors.
PMDC officials confirmed that the newly regulated fee structure has been finalized in consultation with all stakeholders under the supervision of Ishaq Dar, the Prime Minister’s special spokesperson. The revised MBBS and BDS fee cap will be lower than the current rates charged by private medical colleges, ensuring affordable medical education while maintaining quality standards.
This decision aims to curb excessive tuition fees in private medical colleges, making medical education in Pakistan more accessible to deserving students. PMDC remains committed to regulating medical college fees, improving healthcare education, and ensuring transparency in MBBS admissions across the country.
For the latest updates on PMDC policies, MBBS admissions in Pakistan, private medical colleges, and medical education reforms, stay informed.
