GPA bridging replaces comprehensive exam
The Jordanian Ministry of Education and Higher Education has explained that graduates of the general diploma from this year can apply for unified admission according to specific procedures, while graduates of previous years are not permitted to do so and are encouraged to apply through the parallel programs or private universities. Al-Balqa Applied University has abolished the comprehensive exam for students who have completed the requirements of the general diploma, starting from 2026, and has adopted a new bridging mechanism based on the cumulative GPA. For the parallel program, a minimum GPA of 70% is required for engineering and veterinary medicine, and 68% for other disciplines. Meanwhile, bridging in the regular program is limited to graduates of this year within the top 5% of their majors, and candidates must pass a competitive entrance exam.
