Test requirement for admission in Dubai

Alia

Most don’t, that’s why info online feels confusing

Kunal

Even for PG?

Alia

Yes. For PG they mainly check your bachelor’s degree

Tasha

What if UG is from a different background?

Alia

Then they may ask you to take extra subjects. I had to take two

Tasha

And what about Ielts?

Alia

Required only if your previous education wasn’t in English

Kunal

Okay this sounds much simpler than I thought

Alia

It usually is. People overcomplicate Dubai admissions

Kunal:

Do universities in Dubai ask for GRE or GMAT? I’m getting mixed info online

Hey! @Kunal

Many universities in Dubai do NOT ask for GRE or GMAT for most regular bachelor’s or master’s programs, especially in engineering, computer science, IT, or general management.

Some business schools (especially for MBA or finance-related master’s) might ask for GMAT or GRE, but many don’t — they may accept work experience, academic profile, or an alternative test instead.

So the mixed info you saw online is because requirements vary from one university to another. tell me which university and program you’re interested in so I can check the requirements
