International Medical Admissions Test (IMAT) 2026

The International Medical Admissions Test (IMAT) is the official examination used for admissions to English-taught medical programs at Italian public universities. It is organized by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) and is required for international applicants seeking entry to medical and dental programs in Italy. The test assesses biology, chemistry, physics, and logical reasoning, and results are valid for one academic year for direct admission.

The test itself is an admissions exam, not a funding program.

Open to international students who wish to pursue medical studies in Italy through English-taught programs.

Create an account on Universitaly, complete pre-enrollment, select preferred universities, and register for the IMAT at a designated test center.
