Overview

Qassim University in Saudi Arabia offers Master's and Doctoral programs for international students. These programs are designed to meet labor market demands and align with Saudi Vision 2030, focusing on innovation, research, and development. The university has a strong track record of graduating postgraduate students.

Coverage

Saudi state universities, including Qassim University, offer full, partial, and paid scholarships. However, a guaranteed living allowance is not established for every accepted applicant. Candidates for internal scholarships may need to pay tuition after ministry clearance, meaning admission alone does not guarantee a tuition waiver. Applicants are advised to confirm if travel, lodging, healthcare, and tuition are covered by any external awards.

Eligibility

This opportunity is open to all international students, including Ethiopian citizens. Applicants for Master's programs must be under 30 years old, and for Doctorate programs, under 35 years old. Candidates must not be holding another Saudi educational fellowship. Specific programs may have additional academic requirements, such as a minimum GPA (e.g., 3.25/5, 2.25/4, or 75/100) and specific language proficiency scores (e.g., STEP 65 for Renewable Energy Engineering MSc). Prior academic qualifications must match the chosen program.

Requirements

Required documents include a completed application form, academic transcripts, degree certificates, a CV or resume, a personal statement, a valid passport, and other relevant supporting documents. English proficiency test results may be required depending on the program, though some programs might offer exemptions.

How to apply

Applications are submitted electronically through the Qassim University Admission and Registration portal. Prospective students should prepare their credentials, language test results, and all necessary application materials in advance. It is crucial to select a program that aligns with your academic background and to submit a comprehensive application during the specified application window.

Notes

The application period for the 2027 intake is from January 27, 2027, to February 11, 2027. It is important to check the specific requirements for your chosen program, as these can vary (e.g., tuition fees for Renewable Energy Engineering MSc are SAR 40,000). Mechanical and electrical engineering are common entry disciplines, but other backgrounds may be admitted after taking additional courses.
