Fake University means that these universities those are not approved by the government or the local governing bodies. These universities provide the students Under Graduate (UG) and Post Graduate (PG) courses in the various subjects and scheme. But there degree and certificate are not approved by the government.

How to get to know if the university or med school you are planning to study is Fake or Scam?
The first you need to get more details about the University that you are interested in. Check the status and see whether it is a recognized institute or not. There are many fake Universities functioning.
The best way to evaluate the status of a University is by with the regulatory bodies in that country, embassy of that country etc.
Don’t come to a decision just by taking a look at the website of the institute. Websites can be made to look eye-catching. There might be even false information!
Reduced tuition fees is something that fascinates both students and parents en route for MBBS education in countries like China, Philippines, Russia and Ukraine.
But you must understand that the fees is low for a reason. The quality of training and education provided both theoretical and practical, are below average. In many universities, the quality of faculty and infrastructure are pitiable.
This often reveals in the quality of students graduating from such medical schools!
Students who completed their graduation from such medical schools failed to pass the screening test (FMGE) held by the MCI (Medical Council of India). This tendency has led to MCI issuing warnings to medical education aspirants and their parents, who are interested in overseas education.
This clearly shows that if you are planning to study medicine abroad be aware that the university is listed in the Medical Council of India, Approved by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) etc..
One of the best destinations which is opted by many medical students is the Caribbean med schools. There are medical universities in the Caribbean like Texila American University, Saba and more which are listed in the MCI.
