I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread on sharing information about apply to Islamic Universities, tips for those who are applying this summer, and current applicants to share information and those who have connections in saudi to get some up to date information on LI.

For the brothers who are interested in applying, I would strongly recommend them to memorise the Quran and make their Hifdh strong before coming to madinah, so that they may benefit from the scholars and not have to spend most of their time memorising the Quran.
Its not only for the Faculty of Quran, its a basis for any islamic knowledge, if you cant memorise the whole quran atleast set an aim and memorise a few juzz of it.
Some people get accepted not knowing juzz ama properly, so do not worry, all i am saying is put all your effort into the quran do not run towards hadith or fiqh until you know the quran.
you are doing a great job i wanted to ask whether all the papers need to be translated including the a-level results and is it compulsory to give two refrences and what is the last date for applying for madeenah university. As i sidepoint i think it will be hard for me to convince my father to let me study in a islamic university he is actually worried about my welfare after my degree so i just wanted wanted to know what can a student of knowledge do after graduation to earn a living. I will realy appreciate any help.
if its a islamic school. y do u need GCSE ? isnt suppose to be open for anyone....n y is the need of recommendation n how come some can enter with out any n some cant.. isnt suppose to fair... equally. how weird... in yemen .. sanaa game3et el iman.( university. u dont have to go through at that trouble. i mean.. just sign in its free for anyone...! but anyways.. thanxs for lettin us know the process cuz im interested but not now though.. i still got alot of school ahead of.. probably i might go to the one in yemen or egypt... anyways.. thank you once again!
^I suppose that it is to show that you are committed to learning. However i think that some people have said that even with low GCSE Grades they will still take you on if you show to them that you are a dedicated person. Remember that a lot of people apply for UQU and Madeenah University, and they can't take everyone on.
Thats pictures of the annual book fair, the man in the picture is the headmaster of the university.
I would recommend brothers who want to apply to translate the papers and do everything that is recommended from them, because alot of students apply and if your papers arent even complete they wont look twice at your application. And make alot of dua, and always remember knowledge is everywhere, and not only in madeenah. If Allah hasnt decreed it for you move on in life and seek knowledge in different places.
sister arabian princess, its a university, like anyother university in the world you need qualifactions etc along with the qualifactions they look at what country the applicant is from, and how big the need for students is over there, so I wouldnt say its unfair at the end of the day its all in the hands of Allah. If He decreed for you that you shall enrol in the university no one, not even the headmaster himself can do anything to stop it, in the same way if Allah hasnt decreed for you then no one can help you enter the university even if the headmaster was your father.
my bro went Medinah Uni...I can ask him for you people...he had everything translated to arabic and didn't get great results in the school results, he passed tho...he also had some good referrals and recommendations...yeah that's all I can help with at the mo!
Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
