List Of All Accredited Medical Schools In Nigeria (2025)

This article is about the full list of all accredited medical schools in Nigeria this 2025. The details of this article contains medical universities with both full and partial accreditation by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) so that many of our readers who are prospective medical students in the country will have first hand information of the school they’re applying to before taking that bold step to proceed with their admission process.

Many science students in most secondary schools in Nigeria dream of one day becoming medical doctors and you won’t blame them because of the prestige that is associated with this profession but it is imperative that they know which schools to apply for and which ones they should avoid when it comes to studying a course like medicine and surgery that has a seven-year period before graduation.

Accredited medical universities give this assurance that as long as one merits it, they will surely graduate within the stipulated timeframe for this course but a medical school that is not MDCN accredited in Nigeria can have its own problems as it can further prevent students from graduating just under seven years and frustrate even the best minds. Nobody would really want that, this is why we have compiled a comprehensive list of all the accredited medical schools in Nigeria for your perusal.

There are about forty-three (43) accredited colleges of medicine in Nigeria, of which thirty-seven (37) have full accreditation while six (6) have partial accreditation. Majority of these schools are top quality and they form part of the best medical schools in Nigeria as far as the field of medicine and surgery is concerned. If you as a prospective student have decided to study this course, any of these very good MDCN accredited medical universities can help you develop into that top medical doctor that you wish to be. They are listed below.
