Could you, please, help me with finding information of how can I get transferred and enrolled to Medical University in Israel? Currently I'm a student at Kemerburgaz University (Turkey, English program, 2nd grade) and I'm willing to change my study place and become a student of Israel University. In case of getting enrolled in your country, do I loose one year of study or continue with the same step? Which documents are to be made for this issue? I have a Turkish citizenship, if needed to be known. Will be grateful for reply!

Transfer to Israel to study medicine
Hello Hazal,
There are a few institutions in Israel that offer medical study programs for international students, among them: The Tel Aviv University, The Hebrew University, The University of Haifa, the Ben Gurion University and more.
In order to study medicine in Israel you must first complete your pre med studies. Candidates need to present a GPA of at least 3.4. and MCAT scores (or their equivalent in case students are not from the US) with scores of above 27.
Regarding the documents - you will have to contact the Israeli embassy in order to issue a students Visa which will make it possible for you to study and stay in Israel until you finish your degree but if i were in your place i would have contacted the schools first to see if you can apply for their programs before contacting the embassy.
I've attached a link at the end of my message to an article about the different schools that offer medical programs for international students in Israel
