Student Regulations

First: Admission and Registration
Number of students that can be admitted each year:
At the beginning of each academic year, the Scientific Council determines the number of students to be admitted and submits it to the College Board for approval.

All students at the college are regular students and are required to attend all classes, lectures, and practical sessions on a regular basis. They are entitled to benefit from the dining hall, library, and all college facilities in exchange for paying the required fees and dues.

First: Admission Requirements

  • The applicant must be a Muslim.
  • The applicant must be of good conduct and character.
  • The applicant must commit in writing to adhering to the college’s principles, regulations, and rules and confirm that they have read and understood them.
  • The applicant must be physically fit and free from diseases or disabilities that may hinder their ability to continue their studies.
  • The applicant must have obtained a high school diploma or an equivalent qualification with a minimum grade of “Good”.
  • The applicant must pass the entrance exam and the personal interview.

Second: Required Documents

  • The transcript of grades obtained in the final year of high school.
  • A certificate of good conduct issued by a recognized authority approved by the college.
  • A medical report from an accredited institution proving that the applicant is free from infectious diseases.
  • A certified copy of the birth certificate from an institution approved by the college.
  • Four recent passport-sized photos (4×6 cm).
  • A recommendation letter from an Islamic institution in the applicant’s country, a well-known Islamic figure, or former teachers.
  • A written admission request addressed to the Dean of Admission and Registration, along with a completed admission application form.
  • A document folder to store the required papers.

The student will be notified upon submitting their documents, specifying any missing documents. Once the application is complete, the student will be informed of the date for the entrance exam and personal interview in advance through various communication channels.
Committees will be formed to evaluate and interview applicants, and they will be responsible for the following:

  • Verifying the submitted documents and ensuring they meet the admission requirements.
  • Testing applicants in Islamic studies, Arabic, and other relevant knowledge areas based on their chosen specialization.
  • Ranking applicants in descending order according to their entrance exam scores.
  • Selecting the final list of admitted students based on their performance in the interview and exam, according to the predetermined admission quota.
  • The Admissions and Registration Department will keep a complete file for each student containing all submitted documents.

The College Board has the right to modify these procedures if necessary, in the interest of the college, such as by sending representatives to conduct interviews in specific countries or assigning trusted Islamic institutions to handle the admission process.

A student’s admission will be canceled in the following cases:

  • If the student is absent for two weeks after the start of the academic year. An excuse may be accepted if it is deemed valid, provided that the total absence does not exceed 45 days. If the absence exceeds 45 days with a valid excuse, the admission will be automatically deferred to the following academic year.
  • If any forgery or falsification is discovered in the student’s official documents.
  • If the student engages in unethical behavior or acts contrary to Islamic teachings, leading the college to determine that their admission should be revoked.
