Jordanian Tawjihi Equivalency Requirements for H.S.D

  • What are the requirements for the local equivalency (2022/2023)?

First:The student is required to complete 12 years of schooling where he/she shall be officially enrolled in the American Program for the last 3 years. Exceptions apply to the British & IB Programs’ students who finish grade 10 and join the American Program in grade 11 as mentioned earlier.

Second: The school must be officially accredited by an American accreditation agency and its high school transcripts shall be officially certified by the AmidEast in Amman.

Third:The students who are graduating from the Jordanian Schools are expected to pass the following subjects in grades 11 & 12:

Arabic, Islamic Education (for the Muslim students), and Jordan History in addition to the American High School Diploma subjects.

Fourth:Each ACT Subject Test is equivalent to SAT Subject Test (a former test offered by the College Board).
