closes The national unified admissions platform today, Monday, the window for modifying personal profiles and academic data for high school graduates in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This important organizational step is taken to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the entered data before the actual selection process and competition for available academic places in various public universities and technical colleges for the new academic year begins.

The platform explained that the admissions process is proceeding according to a precisely defined timeline. June 9th is the deadline set by the National Center for Assessment (Qiyas) for students to take the achievement test. This will be followed by the automated recording of high school grades via direct link with official sources on June 26th and 27th, ensuring transparency and speed in data processing without human intervention that could lead to errors.
In a related development, the results of admissions to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques Scholarship Program will be announced between June 12th and 14th, giving candidates the option to confirm their acceptance or withdraw. Following this, a period will be dedicated to showcasing available opportunities to students, from June 28th to July 18th, during which the real-time ranking process will commence, and results will be continuously updated based on the order of submitted preferences.
Digital transformation in higher education and the Kingdom's Vision 2030
The launch and development of unified university admissions platforms in Saudi Arabia represents a qualitative leap in the Kingdom's higher education sector. Historically, students faced significant difficulties applying to multiple universities, requiring them to visit different websites and enter data multiple times, sometimes leading to wasted effort, missed opportunities, and overlapping admission slots.
Today, in line with the Kingdom's Vision 2030, this unified digital platform contributes to streamlining efforts and facilitating procedures for hundreds of thousands of graduates annually. This system not only saves time and effort for both administrative staff and students, but also ensures fairness and equal opportunities for all applicants based on clear, balanced, and fully automated academic criteria.
Selection criteria and mechanism for allocating university seats
The platform explained that the presentation of potential admission opportunities will be primarily based on the minimum weighted scores for each major and university. Students will be provided with indicators showing their likelihood of acceptance with scores ranging from "high" to "low," helping them make informed decisions when ranking their academic preferences.
The platform warned applicants that the list of available programs and specializations may change based on competition levels and real-time supply and demand indicators. It also emphasized that July 7th will be the deadline for submitting applications for specializations with specific requirements, such as passing personal interviews or specific entrance exams. Final university placements will be determined and results announced on July 18th.
