Bachelor's degrees abroad

Bachelor's degrees abroad for students from the UAE and Saudi Arabia

For students in Grade 11 and 12. We match the student's curriculum, grades and field to universities whose degrees count at home, then handle applications, visa and arrival.

Start in Grade 11

Most application rounds for a September start close between October and April of Grade 12. Starting a year earlier leaves time for language tests, a strong personal statement and a shortlist that fits your budget.

Your curriculum shapes the route

Universities abroad read British (A-level), American, IB and national curricula differently. Some routes add a one-year foundation programme before the degree. We check the entry requirements of every university on the shortlist against the student's actual grades.

What we check before you apply

  • Recognition of the degree in the UAE or Saudi Arabia
  • Teaching language, and the English test score needed (IELTS or TOEFL)
  • The full yearly cost: tuition, housing and living
  • Application deadlines and the intake date

Where students go

Switzerland is our signature route. We also place students in Europe, the UK and Ireland, and the US, Canada and Australia. Read our Switzerland page to see how the route works.

Frequently asked questions

When should my child start planning a bachelor's abroad?

In Grade 11. Most application rounds for a September start close between October and April of Grade 12, and language tests and personal statements take time.

Do we need IELTS or TOEFL?

Most programmes taught in English ask for an English test score, and some accept other proof, such as the school's curriculum. We check the rule for every university on the list.

Can a student apply to several countries at once?

Yes. Many families apply to the UK through UCAS and to Switzerland or other European countries directly. We build one timeline that covers every system.

Will the degree count in the UAE or Saudi Arabia?

Only if the university and programme meet the rules at home. We check recognition before you apply. Read how recognition works.
