Ensuring compliance with Bahrain Higher Education Council regulations

Home / Higher Education ​Council Requirements

As an HEC-accredited university, RCSI Bahrain requires all students to authenticate their High School certificates and transcripts through the relevant authorities in their country of study and in Bahrain.

Students with previous university study must also authenticate their university documents. Transfer students must submit original transcripts and an official withdrawal letter from their previous institution. 

Please follow the below guidelines on obtaining certification of your High School transcripts and Certificates:

Once we have received these authenticated documents, we will submit the files to the HEC, which will in turn review and confirm registration at RCSI Bahrain. All students are required to follow this process and without this confirmation from the HEC, applicants will not be fully registered at RCSI Bahrain.

Although we request that all authentic original documents be submitted before starting at the University, we understand that this process can take some time to complete or applicants might not have received their original certificates from the awarding body by the time the programme starts and so alternative submission dates can be arranged in these circumstances.

Please note though, that all students entering any of RCSI Bahrain’s programmes will need to provide the original stamped certificates from High School. For more information please contact the Admissions Department by email at medicinebahrain@rcsi-mub.com or nursingbahrain@rcsi-mub.com.
