The meeting was attended by Dr. Haqbin, Vice Chancellor for Education; Dr. Ghorbanian, Vice Chancellor for Cultural and Student Affairs; Dr. Garivani, Director of International Affairs; and other committee members. Several key issues concerning international student admissions and support services were discussed.

During the meeting, the guidelines for admitting international (non-Iranian) students through two pathways — self-funded and scholarship-based — previously approved by the Admissions Committee, were thoroughly reviewed. Standardized admission checklists were also examined to ensure greater consistency and coordination throughout the admission process.

Other topics included health insurance coverage for scholarship students, dormitory capacity, and the provision of educational, welfare, and support services for international students. 

According to the university's plans, NKUMS aims to admit approximately 15 international students in the upcoming semester in Medicine, Nursing, and Midwifery.

Dr. Garivani noted that the university is currently focusing primarily on admitting scholarship students to its Medicine program, which leads to a Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) degree rather than a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree. This opportunity has attracted considerable interest, particularly from prospective students in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Syria.

He added that the university has so far received more than 20 applications from applicants in various countries seeking admission to Medicine, Dentistry, and Midwifery programs.
