The Supreme Council of Universities has announced new admission rules for Egyptian universities for the academic year 2021-2022. These rules apply to students with general high school diplomas, technical certificates, or equivalent foreign and Arab certificates.
Furthermore, the Supreme Council of Universities has approved new admission rules for students with American high school diplomas, and Dr. Tarek Shawki, the Minister of Education and Technical Education, has agreed to consider the SAT exam scores taken by Egyptian students abroad as part of the American Diploma exams. This decision reaffirms Council Decision No. 1 issued during its session on 13th July 2010.
The Council's decision includes the following points:
1. SAT exam scores obtained by students in their American equivalent high school diplomas will be considered for admission to Egyptian universities. These scores should be the highest ones reported on the electronic coordination system and submitted by the students using the designated code 7437. This applies regardless of any different scores found on the physical certificates. Some scores may be invalidated by Collegeboard after the results are announced due to cases of mass cheating, forgery, or other violations.
