In November 2025, our CEO, Helmee Effendee, sat down with the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, Prof. Dr. I Gede Eka Wiratnaya, to secure a dedicated quota for Malaysian students.
We didn’t just read about Udayana on Google. We were in the Dean’s office.
When you apply through Cita Mercu, your application doesn’t go into a pile. It goes directly to the decision-makers we shook hands with.
You have the drive to become a doctor. The Malaysian system (IPTA) may have shut the door, and private unis (IPTS) may be too expensive. But your ambition shouldn't die because of quotas or fees.
We guide you to the summit. Udayana University isn't a backup plan; it is a Center of Excellence for Travel Medicine, recognized by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) since 1995.
We are the bridge between your Cita and your Mercu.
Located in Denpasar, Bali, Universitas Udayana (Unud) isn’t just a university. It is a center of medical excellence recognized by the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) under the Second Schedule of the Medical Act 1971.

The Leverage Point: The money you save on tuition is the seed capital for your first private clinic. That is financial intelligence.
Let’s talk numbers.
That is a RM 370,000 surplus. Smart parents don’t burn that cash on tuition fees. They save it to open their child’s private clinic the day they graduate.
Cita Mercu helps you secure this financial advantage safely. We handle the Visa (KITAS), the housing, and the entrance exam prep.
We know the reality. You spent 18 months preparing for your STPM, A-Level, and even three years pursuing a Diploma. You scored the pointer. But the Public University (IPTA) quota system didn’t give you the Medicine offer you earned.
Your qualification is highly prized at Universitas Udayana. While your peers fight for limited spots in KL, you could be securing your Medical Degree (MD) in Bali through Cita Mercu’s exclusive track.
Because we have a reputation to uphold with the University, we pre-screen every applicant.
STPM, A-Level, and Diploma holder medical degree.
Not required for entry (Udayana has its own English test), but helpful.
Minimum B average (STPM/A-Level/Diploma).
You must be willing to learn Bahasa Indonesia for your clinical years. (Lectures are in English, but patients speak the local language).
We verify your transcript against the Dean’s requirements for FREE.
We are not “agents.” We are Medical Career Architects. We exist to remove the friction so you can focus on the medicine.
We review your grades and provide specific prep materials for the Udayana Entrance Exam (TPA). We know what they ask.
We handle the translation, notarization, and submission of your documents. We manage the entire KITAS (Student Visa) process so you never have to deal with immigration.
We don't just drop you at the airport. We help you find safe, high-quality housing (Villa or Kos) near the Jimbaran or Denpasar campus.
Weekly updates to parents during the settlement phase to ensure they know their child is safe and settled.
We are not “agents.” We are Medical Career Architects. We exist to remove the friction so you can focus on the medicine.
Most agents disappear after you pay the deposit. Cita Mercu is different.
You focus on Anatomy. We focus on the rest.
