For families living in Saudi Arabia

Explore study abroad options from Saudi Arabia.

For students and families in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and across Saudi Arabia, an overseas university shortlist should reflect academic goals, funding arrangements and the intended use of the qualification.

Discuss your study plans

Use the official recommended-university enquiry

Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Education offers a recommended-university enquiry service. Where Saudi recognition or a sponsoring body’s conditions matter to your plans, check the institution and relevant details through official channels before deciding.

Keep a record of the programme, qualification level, study location and study mode you are asking about. A general country recommendation is not an approval for every possible course.

Distinguish self-funded study from a sponsored route

Tell us whether your study plan is self-funded or connected to a scholarship, employer or other sponsor. Each route may involve a different set of conditions to clarify. We do not promise scholarship awards or represent that an overseas course is accepted by a Saudi sponsoring body.

Ask who must confirm the university choice and which payments you would be responsible for before an offer or funding decision is final.

Present your academic profile clearly

Include your school qualification, subjects and results, along with any previous university study. Students enquiring from Saudi Arabia may have different nationalities and curricula, so residence alone does not determine the academic or destination immigration requirements.

For an Engineering or Technology degree, compare the actual curriculum and awarded qualification. For Medicine, add the licensing review for the country where you hope to practise.

Plan costs and family logistics together

Use a university-issued fee schedule and identify travel, accommodation and living costs independently. Coordinate the intake with release of results, application deadlines and confirmed student entry arrangements. MetaSkills discusses the available assistance individually and does not claim a local Saudi office through this page.

Your questions

A clearer next step.

Do you guarantee a Saudi scholarship or sponsor’s acceptance?

No. Scholarship, employer and sponsor decisions are separate from an initial consultancy enquiry. Verify their current conditions directly before committing.

Can residents with a non-Saudi passport enquire?

Yes. Share nationality, academic background and intended destination so the relevant route can be discussed.
