- University studies begin with a unified Orientation Program for all new undergraduate students. The program is designed to equip students with essential skills in English, academic subjects, and personal development, ensuring a successful transition into university-level studies. Completion of the Orientation Program is a prerequisite for admission to academic programs. In accordance with Article (10/Second) of the Study and Examination Regulations, the following categories of students are exempt from both the Orientation Program and the English language placement test:
-
- Students with a high school/secondary average of at least 90%.
- Students with an average score of not less than 90% in all English language courses at the secondary level.
- Students holding internationally recognized general secondary education certificates such as A-Level, IB, or their equivalents.
- Students with a valid IELTS certificate with a minimum score of 5.5, or an equivalent score in TOEFL.*
* Students who wish to submit their certificates may do so within a maximum period of one week from the date of the official admission announcement. The submission date will be communicated at a later time.
- The Orientation Program serves as a transitional phase to ensure that students meet the required standards of competence in higher education. Students who do not fall under the exempted categories mentioned above will be placed into one of the following levels of the program:
-
- Pre-intermediate level, or
- Intermediate level, of the Orientation Program
Based on the results of a placement test conducted for this purpose, and in consideration of the specific language and technical requirements.
- Upon successful completion of the Pre-Intermediate level, students who attain a score of 90% or higher will be eligible to sit for the Intermediate Level Exemption Examination. Students who pass this examination may progress directly to the academic program to which they have been formally admitted, without the need to complete the Intermediate level.
- The Orientation Program comprises 16 credit hours: 12 credit hours for English language courses and 4 credit hours for the personal skills course, in accordance with a study plan approved by the University Council.
