Jalal-Abad State University's medical faculty and JAIU publish no list of clinical bases; the regional hospital and the city's clinics are the only large facilities. JAIU's own site shows a partner clinic. Ask each school for its clinical bases in writing before enrolling; the May 2026 accreditation assessed them, and both schools received a one-year term.

3 of the 34 institutions that train doctors in Kyrgyzstan are in Jalal-Abad. After the Ministry of Health's decision of 29 May 2026, 0 of them can enrol new students; the rest failed, did not apply, or are the subject of the notes above. Each is listed on this page with its result.

The schools here that can enrol have not published a tuition figure in USD; the government minimum since April 2026 is USD 3,000 a year. Each school's card says what is known and where it comes from.
Status is the Ministry of Health's 2026 state accreditation decision, published 4 Jun 2026. Fees are per year in USD unless marked; agent-reported fees are estimates. Each school page lists its sources and the date it was last checked.
