The Primary Medical Qualification (PMQ) awarded by the Gregory University Uturu College of Medicine and Health Sciences now meets the General Medical Council’s (GMC) criteria for an acceptable overseas qualification.
This development was confirmed following a thorough assessment of evidence by the GMC, UK, regarding the acceptability of the PMQ awarded by our institution.
According to the General Medical Council (GMC), UK: “We have completed our assessment, and I am pleased to inform you that the PMQ awarded by your institution currently meets the GMC’s criteria for an acceptable overseas qualification.”
The GMC added: “This means that any doctor awarded a Primary Medical Qualification from Gregory University Uturu will be able to apply to sit the Professional and Linguistic Assessments Board (PLAB) Test and for GMC registration without having their qualification individually assessed.”
The Provost of Gregory University Uturu College of Medicine therefore states that this is an addition to the earlier privilege granted by Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates ECFMG (US and Canada) to write United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE)
He expressed his gratitude to the founder, Professor Gregory Ibe, the university administration, and the college staff for their support and dedication.
Congratulations to Gregory University Uturu for achieving yet another milestone.
