Higher education is a top priority for the Saudi Government. The Ministry of Higher Education aims at ful�lling the vision of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques -King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz- to achieve a balanced and sustainable develop-ment. As a Muslim country, seeking knowledge is a religious obligation. Hence, higher education institutions – Universities and Colleges- are spread-ing all over the kingdom. As Saudi Arabia derives its legislation from the Quran and the Sunnah, therefore women must wear a veil or an abaya. O�cial holidays are during the two Eids (and it will be explained in details in vacations section)
