Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enroll in the Faculty of Engineering?
To enroll, a student must have successfully completed secondary school and sit for the faculty's entrance exam, held every summer (usually in July). Students who obtain an average of 12/20 in this exam are admitted.
Is everyone who scores 12/20 admitted, or is there a quota?
Everyone who reaches this average is admitted; there is no fixed number of admitted students.
Does the choice between General Sciences and Life Sciences affect eligibility?
A General Sciences baccalaureate is not required; it only helps, since its subjects resemble the entrance-exam material. A Life Sciences holder may equally apply; every student according to their abilities.
What is the registration fee for the entrance exam?
The fee is 35,000 LBP, paid at LibanPost after the student fills the registration form on the website of the branch where they wish to register.
