Big Changes To University Admissions Announced In The UAE Today

ByCasey Fitzgerald

BOOM! Today the Ministry of Education announced it is relaxing it rules for university admissions and it will be music to the ears of prospective uni students.

EmSATS will no longer be compulsory!

Rolling out for 2023-2024 admissions, uni applicants no longer need to complete the Emirates Standardized Tests (EmSAT)– which are the national system of standardized computer-based tests, and were previously needed for all UAE university applications. The move is intended to allow more flexibility for students to choose a university major based on their skills and interests.

Students will need to apply for a “Letter of No Objection to be Conditionally Admitted” to be exempted from the requirements, provided they meet the eligible criteria.
