Higher Education Ministry Clarifies Classification Mechanism for Tawjihi Students in Unified Admissions - Jordan News
Higher Education Ministry Clarifies Classification Mechanism for Tawjihi Students in Unified Admissions Mu'men Al-Khatib, Director of the Unified Admission Coordination Unit, stated that most current inquiries received by the unit revolve around the classification of General Secondary Education Certificate (Tawjihi) students into two categories: 'Current Year' and 'Previous Years.' This classification determines whether a student is eligible to compete for all available university seats or only a limited percentage. اضافة اعلان Speaking to the Jordan News Agency (Petra) on Tuesday, Al-Khatib explained that student classification is based on four main cases: Current-Year Student: A student who passed the Jordanian Tawjihi for the first time this year, achieved at least 50% in all subjects, and earned a general average of no less than 65% is considered a "current-year student" and is eligible to compete for 100% of university seats. Previous-Year Student (Improving Scores): A student who passed Tawjihi in previous years and then retook some subjects to raise their average is classified as a "previous-years student" and may compete for only 5% of available seats. Supplementary Exam Case: A student who first passed the Tawjihi in the most recent supplementary session, then retook some subjects in the current summer session, will be classified based on the certificate used for university admission: If applying with the supplementary session results → Current-Year Student If applying with the summer session results (after retaking exams) → Previous-Year Student Al-Khatib stressed the importance of accurately entering the exam seat number, session, and selecting the certificate upon which the student wishes to compete. Full Retake or Branch Change: A student who retakes all Tawjihi subjects or switches academic branches is considered a current-year student and is eligible to compete for 100% of seats. — Petra
