FAQ
Official Contacts — Frequently Asked Questions
7 answered questions about Official Contacts, each with the source it was built from and the authority to confirm it with.
Where can I find the Study in Jordan portal?
The official Study in Jordan portal is at studyinjordan.jo, and it is the Ministry's portal for international-student programme information and applications. Use it for programme and major search, fees as listed for programmes, and the international application process.
Where can I find Jordan's Unified Admission information?
The Ministry identifies the Unified Admission Coordination Unit website as admhec.gov.jo for public-university admission information, including announcements of application windows and historical competitive averages for majors.
Where can I find Jordanian higher-education admission policies?
The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research publishes general admission policies and related documents on its official website. Policies are set per admission cycle, so always read the current document rather than a previous year's summary.
Where can I find current majors and programme fees?
Use the Study in Jordan major-search portal, then verify the final fee schedule with the institution before paying anything. Programme listings are updated per admission period, and listed fees are indicative of the programme rather than a substitute for the institution's own schedule.
How do I apply to a Jordanian university from abroad?
Choose the institution and major, check eligibility and document requirements, prepare authenticated documents and certified translations, then use the official international admission portal where applicable. Verify your certificate's recognition/equivalency position at the same time, because that process runs in parallel with the admission application.
How do I get a foreign school certificate or university degree recognised in Jordan?
Follow the competent authority's authentication and equivalency procedure applicable to your certificate and your educational purpose. For school certificates, that is the Ministry of Education; for higher-education qualifications, it is the Recognition & Certificates Equivalency Directorate at the Ministry of Higher Education. For degrees obtained abroad, the conditions can relate to the country, the institution, the degree and the mode of study.
What documents may an international application require?
Commonly a passport or identity document, recognised secondary-school certificate (for bachelor entry) or prior degree (for postgraduate entry), transcripts, authenticated documents and certified translations where applicable, photographs, and language-test results where required. Check the exact current checklist in the active announcement, because it is set per admission cycle.
