Dubai offers many different advantages and is a hotspot for foreigners – whether it be for study, work and travel. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

If you are planning on studying in Dubai, you’ve come to the right place. Here are 7 reasons why you should study in Dubai!<\/span><\/p>\n

1. An All-English Environment<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

With over 200 nationalities residing in the UAE, Dubai is a melting pot. The openness and inclusive mindset of the Dubai society is the reason why Dubai can offer an all-English environment. According to a report done on non-English speaking countries, among all the nations, English is widely used in Dubai, not only in daily life, but also as a business language in the UAE. It is so commonly used that it is practically the only language spoken by foreigners in the UAE! In Dubai, you can fully immerse yourself in an all-English environment, plus most of the 176 international schools in Dubai use English as their medium of instruction, so you don’t need to worry about language barriers!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

2.<\/span>  Easy entry to prestigious institutions: direct transfer to the UK, USA or Australia<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n
Dubai has established itself as the largest higher education free zone in the world for years in a row. Therefore, Dubai is a hotspot for international universities to set up branch campuses. The Dubai International Academic City (DIAC) and Dubai Knowledge Park (DKP) are two renowned free zones in Dubai that aim to attract international universities to set up branch campuses in Dubai. These international branch campuses allow its students to obtain the same certificate as universities in the United Kingdom, United States of America and Australia. The 2+2 and 3+1 programmes fuel students’ international study plans in the United Kingdom, United States of America and Australia. By enrolling in Dubai, one can transfer to the main campus easily! Heriot-Watt University offers a 2+2 program that allows their students to study in both Dubai and Edinburgh. They can enjoy a different learning experience that will benefit them in the long run. Besides that, after enrolling in the University of Wollongong in Dubai, you can also switch between the Dubai campus and the main campus. This way, students have the chance to experience different kinds of teaching methods freely!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

3. <\/span> Cost-effective studying experience<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n
The fees for studying abroad differ between countries. However, studying in Dubai has become the first choice for many international students, thanks to its cost-effective studying plan. In general, the cost of undergraduate study in Dubai is about AED40,000 to AED90,000, while the living cost is about AED30,000 to AED40,000 per annum. As for the postgraduate programme, the tuition fee is billed based on the programme, and the cost is around AED60,000 to AED100,000. However, they can pay the tuition fee in installments over terms. The total price is nearly half of the cost of studying in the United Kingdom and the United States of America!<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n
4. No bank guarantee needed!<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n
A bank guarantee is not needed when you apply to study abroad in Dubai. This is great news for middle-class households who hope to send their children to study overseas, as they can pay the tuition fee in installments, thus reducing their financial burden and giving an avenue for more students to study in Dubai.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
5. Short application cycle, high chance of obtaining e-Visa<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
Every year, students would wait anxiously for their offer letter, but in Dubai, offer letters are usually issued within 10 working days. The application procedure is much easier than in Europe, and not to mention, the application cycle is much shorter. The student visa adopts the UAE e-Visa as well. They are allowed to enter the country with their printed visa. Besides, there is a 99% approval rate, which is a relatively high figure, and it only takes about two weeks to process.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n
6. <\/span> Plenty of job opportunities, no work visa pre-requirement<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n
About 95% of Dubai graduates would stay in Dubai to look for a job. As there is no limitation or quota for a work visa in Dubai, employers can apply for a work visa on behalf of the student as soon as they land a job.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
Employment opportunities are much higher in Dubai compared to other popular studying abroad countries. More than 400 Fortune 500 companies are setting up branches in Dubai! Thanks to Expo 2020 and the 2022 FIFA World Cup, Dubai now has an image as a world-class destination. It provides a chance for international students in Dubai to have practical experience in world-class exhibitions and games. Besides, many Chinese-funded companies are setting up branches in Dubai. There is a great demand for Chinese talents with studying experience in Dubai.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
7. Stable government and safe living environment<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
Safety is the most important factor for international students to consider. Dubai is a prosperous and safe city. This is what most Chinese experience in Dubai. Simply put, people wouldn’t bother to lock their doors at night – this is the best representation of Dubai’s safety! In fact, Dubai has even secured a seat at the top of the Safe Cities Index. There are more than 200 nationalities living in Dubai, and the openness and inclusiveness ensure this melting pot’s stability.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
