The United Arab Emirates is the new leader in the top search queries from applicants from different countries: 59% of all requests on Keystone platforms are related to studying in the UAE. The growing popularity among students makes the Emirates the most sought-after academic center in the Middle East and North Africa. In June alone, the number of queries in the search engine increased by 90% compared to last year!
It's all about global geopolitical changes in the educational sector. If earlier the main centers of attraction were the countries of the European Union and the United States of America, today the countries of the East and Asia are confidently pulling ahead in the leadership race. While in some states the rights of foreigners are curtailed and complicated by the processes of issuing visas, in others they are supported and stimulated in every possible way for a long stay in the country. Keystone experts note that most foreign students in the Emirates are attracted by the affordable cost and a wide range of academic programs.
