During its recent session chaired by Dr. Azmi Mahafza, Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, the Higher Education Council decided to amend the number of credit hours transferable for intermediate diploma students who are bridging into Jordanian official and private universities, effective from the 2024/2025 academic year.

According to the decision, Jordanian universities will equate courses studied by students at the intermediate university diploma level—whether completed inside or outside Jordan—provided that the content match is at least 80%. The maximum transferable credit hours will be 48 hours for two-year programs and 64 hours for three-year programs.
The decision applies to students admitted in the 2024/2025 academic year as well as to all students who will be admitted in future years under bridging programs.
Mohannad Al-Khatib, Media Advisor to the Minister of Higher Education, Director of the Unified Admission Coordination Unit, and the Ministry’s spokesperson, emphasized the importance of this decision in achieving academic fairness and enhancing opportunities for diploma students to continue higher education under standards that ensure competence and quality.
