The “Study in Saudi Arabia” platform serves as a centralized hub for the submission of admission applications to Saudi universities by international students. By doing so, the program enhances and streamlines the overall application process. It offers an array of academic, training, and research programs, catering to both short-term and long-term educational goals, all within a contemporary and outstanding educational environment.
This strategic move aligns with the broader initiatives led by Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman and Vision 2030, reflecting Saudi Arabia’s commitment to global engagement.
