UAE sets Aug.11 deadline for students to accept or reject university offers

The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (MoHESR) has set Aug.11, 2025 as the deadline for students changing academic choices and those applying for scholarships abroad for Fall 2025-2026 to accept or reject university admission offers via the Ministry’s electronic portal.

Programme acceptance must be confirmed and all remaining procedures completed by this date, and students are advised to complete all requirements on time to ensure seamless processing. 

MoHESR urges students to activate their UAE Pass and use the ‘Student and Scholarship Registration’ service on its website, and to meet all deadlines to avoid delays. Applicants should monitor their accounts regularly, follow institutional instructions and complete any additional requirements promptly. 

MoHESR offers streamlined smart services for students, cutting application time to just 90 seconds, reducing required documents by 86% and enabling registration at 59 higher education institutions.
