Foreign students need a Moroccan visa in the student, trainee and researcher category, supported by enrolment at a Moroccan institution or an AMCI scholarship and proof of sufficient means for the whole course, and must apply to the national police for a registration card to stay more than three months. At Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane, which teaches in English, international undergraduates pay MAD 3,360 per credit and need TOEFL iBT 71.
The Moroccan Agency for International Cooperation (AMCI) issues scholarships to foreign students, and an AMCI enrolment or scholarship certificate supports the student visa application. Al Akhawayn University reserves its undergraduate scholarships for Moroccan students, but international students admitted to its MAISD, NAMES or MAIS graduate programmes can receive merit-based scholarships.
