In the UAE, admission rules to universities have been simplified
The Ministry of Education of the United Arab Emirates has announced a new decision that will affect the future of many high school graduates in the country. According to the new rules, students will no longer be required to take the standardized EmSAT tests for university admission.
This decision aims to help students choose their university majors based on their interests, skills, and abilities, as well as provide greater flexibility in selecting majors. Higher education institutions will now be able to use other tests to evaluate students' preparation and determine the minimum scores needed for admission.
However, universities must guarantee the quality of education. The new admission rules will be implemented in the 2023-2024 academic year and will help adapt the skills of young people to the requirements of the labor market.
In the UAE, there are several universities that already have an excellent reputation worldwide. Some of them, such as Khalifa University of Science and Technology, University of Sharjah, and New York University Abu Dhabi, are among the top thousand universities in the world, according to the online resource Research.com.
The new admission rules will allow universities to more accurately adjust their admission criteria, which in turn will improve the quality of education and help students achieve success in their careers.
The research lists the best universities in each state. In the UAE, the leading universities were recognized as the UAE University, Gulf Medical University, Zayed University, Ajman University of Science and Technology, American University of Sharjah, British University in Dubai, Mohammed Bin Rashid University of Medicine and Health Sciences, Higher Colleges of Technology, Emirates College for Advanced Education, Mohammed Bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence, and American University of Ras Al Khaimah.
