Who Can Apply for MBBS?
So, who can even apply for these China MBBS scholarships for Nepali students fully funded?
First, academics. You need your Higher Secondary Certificate, of course, with Physics, Chem, Bio. Gotta hit those minimum percentages too, each uni has its own. A strong academic background? Obviously, that helps a ton.
Age-wise? Usually, between 18 and 25.

Funding: Fully vs Partially Funded
Now, the money part. Some scholarships are fully funded, which is awesome. Others? Partially funded.
Fully funded means: tuition’s gone! Free dorm or money for a place. Monthly living stipend, which is huge. Plus, medical insurance. You’re pretty much set.
Partially funded is still good! Tuition cut, maybe some help with accommodation. But no monthly stipend, usually. And medical insurance might be a bit more limited. Still, a massive help, right?
| Benefit Type | Fully Funded | Partially Funded |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition Fee | Covered | Reduced |
| Accommodation | Covered | Partial |
| Monthly Stipend | Yes | No |
| Medical Insurance | Yes | Limited |
