Bachelor degree at KU
In order to enter a bachelor's program, applicants must successfully pass the entrance exams.
The city campus of KU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Kabul has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. KU regularly invites foreign students to participate in exchange programs. For locals, this is a unique opportunity to get in touch with the cultures of other countries, meet representatives of different nationalities and make friends around the world.
