Admission at NDU
The selection depends on the following rigorous assessment model (in no particular order):
- TOEFL or Writing section of SAT I or EET (NDU English Entrance Test)
- SAT I Reasoning scores or NDU Entrance Test (Aptitude Test).
- Secondary School GPA
- The application and the application essay
A “composite score” is calculated based on an appraisal of the accepted students and remedials are accordingly allocated. School grades (second and third secondary years) are weighted 55% and SAT I (or NDU Entrance Exam) is weighted 45% in evaluating an application. Applicants must accumulate a certain score required by their selected Faculty in order to be admitted in their offered majors.
The application and its essay reflect clearly on the applicant. Therefore, the application is very thoroughly analyzed, and the essay is intensely read through and evaluated.
The following documents must be submitted with each application form:
- A Secondary School Record and a Letter of Conduct from the school principal
- A Letter of Recommendation from the school principal (or from the university administration, if any)
- A photocopy of the Identity Card or passport
- Two recent passport-size photos
- Certified copies of all official certificates or diplomas
- Scores of exams taken outside NDU (TOEFL, SAT I and SAT II).
Freshman applicants must additionally submit:
- An official school document attesting that they have completed and passed their High School requirements
- A written authorization from the Equivalence Committee
- Scores of both SAT I & SAT II.
Documents must be original. All documents submitted to complete a file become the property of NDU. Whether accepted or rejected, applicants may not claim any of the documents.
