No, Seoul National University (SNU) is not recognized or certified by NMC because it is not a medical university offering MBBS or equivalent medical degrees. NMC does not maintain or endorse a list of foreign universities for MBBS recognition.

Instead, NMC requires students with medical degrees from abroad to qualify the Foreign Medical Graduates Examination or NEXT, and to have studied in universities that meet eligibility criteria like English-medium instruction, a minimum of 54 months of academics plus a 12-month internship, and proper accreditation in their home country.

That means SNU, while a prestigious general university, does not fall under NMC’s purview for medical program recognition.

Seoul National University is not certified by the National Medical Commission (NMC) of India.
It is a prestigious university in South Korea, approved by Korean medical authorities.
Indian students must check NMC's list if they want to practice in India after studying abroad.
SNU may still be eligible for screening tests, such as FMGE, for Indian recognition.
