British International Education Certificate Officially Accredited for Egyptian University Admissions

The Ministry of Education and Technical Education sent an official letter to the Supreme Council of Universities regarding the accreditation of the British international certificate known as 'LRN' as an official educational certificate recognized within Egypt. This step allows students holding this qualification to apply directly to the coordination system for public, private, and national universities under the same rules and standards as equivalent international certificates.

The Ministry confirmed that the decision came after extensive studies and careful reviews to match curricula, academic standards, and internationally applicable evaluation systems. This ensures equal opportunities and that students receive a solid scientific qualification suited to university education requirements in Egypt, opening new and diverse educational paths for parents and students in various specialties.

This measure contributes to facilitating university admission and registration procedures for the next academic year. Concerned equivalency committees are setting guidelines for calculating the weighted total of grades and the required percentages for subjects qualifying for each college. Education experts welcomed this step as a positive move toward diversifying educational sources in line with contemporary open education standards.
