Hi Salman,

This seems to be in Riyadh. Do you know any universities in Jeddah where Women can enroll for Masters degree?

My wife might be interested in this if & when we move there and also do they normally give some scholarships to expat women.

Many Thanks!

I'm really not sure about that, but let me do some snooping around.

Hi salman & all

does anyone got any information on this please.

thanks a lot!

Have you looked into KAUST?  I know they take foreign students--only 15 percent of their students at this point are Saudi plus it's co-ed and very modern (just opened in September).

Hi

yeah I checked KAUST..its definitely very good...howver my wife's field is social sciences so she would like somehting mroe towards that side. KAUST , though looks very promising, is only into engineering & sciences

is there anywhere else that she can enroll in Jeddah.
Any ideas are more than welcome!

thanks!

Not sure about doing a Masters locally for expats. However the University of London offers all kinds of Bachelors, masters and Doctorate Programs on an external degree basis which is valid and recognized across the Globe.

let me do this...

you are trying to find a private school for your wife? if that is the case, then yes, there is a private one in Jeddah
