The UAE Ministry of Education requires all undergraduate students to undertake an Arabic language course during their higher education studies as a compulsory module. However, the university would like to acknowledge any prior learning in Arabic or your bilingual/native speaking level. Please fill out our form if you have any prior learning in Arabic or you are a non-Arabic speaker to provide evidence or sit an exam to assess your level. You only need to attend one of the Arabic exams strictly throughout the week.
