Gregory University Uturu (GUU), a prestigious institution in the South East region of Nigeria, is consistently raising standards globally as the Primary Medical Qualification (PMQ) awarded by the GUU College of Medicine and Health Sciences meets the General Medical Council’s (GMC) criteria for an acceptable overseas qualification.
This development was disclosed in a press release made available by the university’s Public Relations Officer, Ekemini Udo.
According to the press release, the qualification was confirmed following a thorough assessment of evidence by the GMC, UK, regarding the acceptability of the PMQ awarded by Gregory University Uturu, Abia State.
In addition, the GMC stated: “We have completed our assessment, and I am pleased to inform you that the PMQ awarded by your institution currently meets the GMC’s criteria for an acceptable overseas qualification.”
