Students will be informed of the course(s) eligible for transfer within 48 hours by the Graduate Programs Office. Admission Requirement
UD approves, in principle, the admission of applicants transferring from other institutions of higher education. Such candidates are eligible for admission subject to the following conditions:
- The institution they are transferring from is recognized by the UAE MOHESR and uses the credit-hour system.
- Applicants transferring from other institutions must have earned a GPA of not less than 3.00 and may only be given transfer credit for courses which are equivalent to those offered by UD and in which they have received a minimum grade of B (equivalent to a GPA of 3.0 or 83-86%).
- If the transfer student has an academic warning (i.e., GPA is less than 3.0), he/she will be considered for conditional admission as a new student and not as a transfer student.
- Prior to their admission, transfer students will be informed in writing of transfer courses approved by the Dean of the College. The transfer courses will be accepted upon receipt of official transcripts.
- Transfer credits are entered on the student’s transcript and the student’s academic plan with a grade of “TC”. The transferred courses appear as credit hours (and are counted toward the degree) but no grade points are assigned; thus, they are not used in computing the student’s GPA.
- The maximum number of credits a student may transfer must not exceed 50% of the total number of hours required for graduation (i.e. 18 credit hours).
- Transferred courses must match at least 80% of the course content of UD courses.
- No credits will be granted twice for similar courses taken at different universities.

The applicant may apply for student visa only after getting admitted to the program and enroll as a Full Time student.
Student Visa is valid only for one year.
A student visa permits the student to work only as a part time after getting the needful approvals from the concerned authorities in the UAE.
The approval or rejection of the visa is under General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs in Dubai. The visa process has no timing frame as it may take from two days up to two months, so we strongly recommend to submit your documents at least 2 months before the start of the term.
