Apply NowProgram Overview
King Abdulaziz University (KAU) in Jeddah is one of Saudi Arabia's largest public universities. It was founded in 1967, and Saudi Arabia's official Study in Saudi platform lists 138 programmes there for international applicants, from bachelor's degrees to PhDs. The platform shows the university's world ranking as 143 and lists accreditations that include NCAAA, AACSB for business and ABET for engineering.
Each programme on the platform is offered as a full scholarship, a partial scholarship or a self-funded place. With a full scholarship, the sponsoring entity covers all scholarship costs. With a partial scholarship, it covers part of the tuition and the student pays the rest. Some programmes are open to international students abroad and some to residents of Saudi Arabia. Application dates are set for each programme, so no single deadline is shown here. This page was last checked against the Study in Saudi platform on 7 October 2026.
