Admission test

Own university test

Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome is a private university in Rome with Medicine and Surgery taught in English, a Foundation Year for international students and a campus model built around teaching, research and healthcare.

For IMAT Mentor students, the key point is admissions separation. Campus Bio-Medico is not part of the public IMAT admission process. Its Medicine and Surgery admissions are handled through UCBM calls and private admission tests. The Foundation Year can be relevant as a pre-university preparatory course for international students, but it is not a guaranteed pathway into Medicine.

Best fit

Students who want a private Rome medical-school option, an English-taught Medicine program and a campus connected to a clinical and research environment.

Degree

UCBM lists Medicine and Surgery as a 6-year LM-41 single-cycle degree with 360 credits.

Admission warning

Prepare for UCBM's private admission rules separately from public IMAT universities and rankings.

Medicine and Foundation Year at UCBM

This university page covers the two programs in our current pipeline: Medicine and Surgery in English and the Foundation Year pre-university course. UCBM also publishes a separate Medicine and Surgery "MedTech" option in English, which should be treated as a separate admission choice if we decide to cover it later.

Medicine and Surgery	6 years / 360 credits	LM-41 single-cycle Medicine degree	EUR 18,000 / year for Medicine and Surgery on the international-student fee page	UCBM private admission test, not public IMAT admission

Admission type

Private UCBM test

Do not plan this through the public IMAT ranking.

Applicant checks

Confirm whether you are applying as EU/equivalent or non-EU not resident in Italy.
Use the official UCBM call for documents, test payment, ranking and enrollment instructions.
Check English certificate and visa requirements early if applying from outside Italy.

MedTech is separate

UCBM's 2026/2027 Medicine page warns that applicants who also want Medicine and Surgery "MedTech" must submit a separate registration and payment. This page does not treat MedTech as the same program.

Campus Bio-Medico admission test

UCBM Medicine applicants should prepare against the current UCBM admission call, not against public IMAT assumptions. The official call controls test structure, timing, scoring, simulator access, candidate categories and ranking rules.

Medicine

UCBM written test

For 2026/2027, UCBM listed a written test, with separate procedures by candidate category.

International

B2 English checks

The non-EU page states that Medicine and Surgery admission requires English knowledge at least B2 CEFR.

Foundation Year

Preparation program

Foundation Year is a preparatory curriculum, not an automatic Medicine admission guarantee.

IMAT Mentor can support the overlapping academic base: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, reasoning, flashcards and timed practice. The exact UCBM test checklist still belongs to the official UCBM call.

Tuition, fees and living costs

UCBM's international-student tuition page lists EUR 18,000 per academic year for Medicine and Surgery, payable in three installments. The Foundation Year page lists EUR 6,000, divided into two installments. Always check the active call and fee rules before budgeting.

Medicine tuition

EUR 18,000 per academic year on the UCBM international-student tuition page checked for this pass.

Foundation Year

EUR 6,000 total on the 2025/2026 Foundation Year page, split into two installments.

Rome living costs

Plan roughly EUR 1,000-1,500 per month before deposits, visa costs, flights and one-time setup expenses.

Recognition and licensing

Medicine and Surgery is an Italian LM-41 Medicine degree. Licensing and medical registration after graduation still depend on the country where the graduate wants to practise, so applicants should check destination-country rules early.

Student life in Rome

UCBM is based at Via Alvaro del Portillo in Rome, away from the historic centre and close to its healthcare and research environment. The university describes a campus model where teaching, research and healthcare take place in interconnected facilities, with services for student life, international mobility, library use and support.

Best fit

Students who want a campus-based private Medicine program in Rome rather than a public IMAT ranking option.

Watch out for

Private tuition, earlier admission deadlines and separate test rules make UCBM a different planning project from public IMAT universities.

How IMAT Mentor helps

Use IMAT Mentor for the shared academic work: core Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, reasoning practice, flashcards and study structure. For Campus Bio-Medico, pair that with the official UCBM call because the admission test is private and separate from IMAT.
