KFU campus
The city campus of KFU provides students with countless opportunities for work and recreation — from sitting in a coffee shop with a laptop to internships at large companies. Al Hufuf has a well developed entertainment infrastructure, but the rhythm of the big city can be distracting for some students. The university has a library, in the collection of which you will find not only textbooks and scientific works, but also works of the classics, modern literature and much more. Foreigners who come to KFU through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
There are several options to stay in the country after graduation. One of them is to get an offer from an employer and apply for a work visa. Read more about this on the embassy website. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
