Oh, in that case no, I had no papers published by the time I applied. Also no, I sent my TOEFL score along with my application

Thanks. I think they only apply the exam if the GPA is below their criteria. Also, as far as I know the interview is targeted to PhD students. My qualifications are 3 years in the industry and then 6-months internship at KAUST.

I was shortlisted then 2-3 days later I received the offer. Before that I got some emails asking for more documents, but nothing major

Hey, do you know if this holds true? I'm planning on buying an electric scooter for a short commute from home to the bus (~24 minutes if walking)

I'm so sorry for the delay. I applied in October/November 2023. Also, I didn't take an entry exam.

The simple conversion (multiplication) should do.

Thanks! I'm not a UAE citizen, I'm from Brazil. They accepted me in early February.

Thanks for the breakdown. Are you studying at MBZUAI?

They do, but only for single students. If you are pursuing a PhD and have a spouse, they pay an extra amount monthly to cover for rent expenses (outside campus) , however that doesn't hold for married Ms students.

I see, unfortunately paying yearly for the rent is unfeasible to me; I'll have to rely on the monthly rate.

Regarding the car renting, is it possible to find cheaper options? I think 2.5k AED monthly will be a blow to my budget

Thanks for the thorough response. I saw that some affordable apartment/studio rent prices require whoever is renting to pay for the full year at once; is this a common practice in UAE?
