Airport collection

Arriving in a new country to study can be both exciting yet daunting at the same time. Our friendly meet and greet service will be operating over our two arrival dates in September. Offering free transport for students  from the airport to the student accommodation in Gozo.  You will be met at Luqa International airport by members of the Phase One Team who will then escort you via the scenic route back to Gozo!   

This is a great opportunity to meet other new students  as well as staff and can make your first few days at Medical School a bit less daunting. Full information on booking the meet and greet service will be published here in summer 2020.

Please be advised that family members or friends who wish to accompany you on your arrival to Gozo will have to arrange their own transport and accommodation.

Healthcare 

The World Health Organisation (WHO) ranks Malta 5th in the world in terms of health system performance. The islands enjoy a high standard of living and feature excellent public and private healthcare facilities. When compared to other European countries, private medical treatment costs significantly less. You can visit a doctor for free at one of the community clinics located in all towns and villages in Gozo. New students are guided to the local healthcare services during their induction.

We encourage students to take out personal health insurance cover for the duration of their stay.

Students from EU and EEA member states and Switzerland are entitled to state health care services upon presentation of an original student European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) and an identification document showing proof of nationality. The EHIC card is to be applied for from your country of origin prior to leaving for Malta.
