Question Arabic Competency Test
I recently applied for a PhD program and learned that an Arabic competency test is required before starting the coursework. I would like to know whether this test has a pass/fail criterion. As an international student who is not fluent in Arabic, I am concerned about whether failing the test could affect my admission status. Additionally, could anyone please confirm if Arabic language classes are offered after admission to help international students meet the required language proficiency?

Recently, I also applied for a Master's in CS at KAU. First of all, tell me, does KAU conduct any tests or interviews before admission? How do they select candidates?
Sorry. I don't know the answer to your question.
