RIYADH — Princess Nora Bint Abdulrahman University announced it has not accepted any non-Saudi students so far. The university issued this clarification following rumors of non-Saudi admissions.

A source from the university said false rumors have been spread about the university and no non-Saudi has been admitted.

“We have standards for acceptance and applications are open to Saudi students and students of Saudi mothers. We have no bias in our acceptance process. Our criteria is based on academic excellence. Lately, many Saudi applicants have been highly qualified for our standards,” said the source.

The source also said registration is done online but we have permitted in person registration due to some technical difficulties some applicants faced.

“Those wishing to transfer from another university to Princess Nora Bint Abdulrahman University must complete at least one term in the university they wish to transfer from,” said the source.

Princess Nora Bint Abdulrahman University Student Affairs Dean Faizah Al-Fayez said we do not accept applications done in person.

“Registration is an online process only. The university is open to serve citizens and registeration for the university is done through the public universities’ e-portal,” said Al-Fayez.
