The Moroccan Education System

International students applying to Moroccan universities generally need to have completed high school or an equivalent of their previous degree. Specific requirements include proof of French or Arabic proficiency (depending on the program), transcripts, and a valid passport. Some universities may also ask for a Moroccan equivalency of any diplomas applicants may hold.

The application process usually involves submitting an online application through the university's portal, alongside required documents (such as diplomas, language certificates, and copy of passport). Certain universities also require a French or Arabic language test. Deadlines for international students may vary based on the program and institution.

Morocco offers various scholarships for international students, including the Morocco Scholarship Program (for students from Africa and other countries). Some universities also have specific financial aid for students from certain countries. It is best to consult the university’s international office for detailed information on available scholarships.

Most Moroccan universities offer programs in French or Arabic. However, many business, engineering, and international relations programs are available in English, especially at private institutions. It is essential to verify the language of instruction when selecting a program.

International students must apply for a Moroccan student visa at their nearest Moroccan embassy or consulate. Required documents include an acceptance letter from a Moroccan university, proof of financial means, and valid health insurance. Some students may also need to provide proof of proficiency in French or Arabic.

On average, they amount to 70,000 MAD, approximately 6,422 euros per year for HEM, and around 40,000 MAD, approximately 3,670 euros for Collège LaSalle Maroc. Each institution offers a fee structure tailored to its programs. For detailed information, visit the official websites or contact their admissions offices directly.
