How to become a medical doctor in the Untied States

Currently there are about 35 students who are American citizens, and they are getting their medical education in Bulgaria.This is a program that benefits both United States and Bulgaria. Why? A good question. Each of these students pays roughly 6000 EUR to Bulgaria, also they have to live in Bulgaria and they spend their money in Bulgaria. That means they have to rent apartments, and they have to buy everything here in Bulgaria. That is a very good news for Bulgaria.

It is also a good news for the Untied States, because the quality of the Bulgarian education is very prestigious and it is well recognized throughout the world. And this fact helps to create a better image of Bulgaria in the United States.

In the United States, there is a shortage of medical doctors in certain places - rural areas and also in some of the urban locations. The US government currently allows almost five thousand foreign medical doctors to work in the States.

The benefit for Bulgaria is obvious prestige and global economic benefit.

Because Bulgaria is a part of the EU, for example a student from Germany, England, Spain or Cyprus would only have to pay a few hundred EUR to get this degree in Bulgaria. However, a student from the US will gladly pay thirty times more to get this degree from Bulgaria.

This system is a great example how two nations Bulgaria and the US can benefit from a very creative and mutual relationship.
