Cavendish University Zambia's School of Medicine offers a full-time MBChB of 6 to 8 years (12 semesters nominal) for applicants with the medicine/health foundation, A-levels or equivalent, or five O-level credits including English, mathematics, biology and science. The 2026 local fee schedule lists MBChB tuition per semester in kwacha; international students follow a separate fee brochure and must obtain a Zambian study permit.
