Limitations: BM&DC's recognised-college list and the Sylhet Medical University list could not be read (Cloudflare), so the backbone is the DGME 2025-26 government list plus the affiliation lists of the University of Dhaka, Chittagong, Rajshahi and Khulna Medical Universities and BUP. Private colleges are marked operating only where their own site shows a 2025-26 or later intake; others are not_verified. Ownership of non-government colleges on the Dhaka, Rajshahi and Khulna lists is left null (those lists do not label it in a quotable row). Websites were taken from university list links or confirmed by fetching. Program language and international admission policy not researched.
