UAE Lists 100 Universities for Abu Dhabi Golden Visa Eligibility

The United Arab Emirates has announced a list of 100 universities whose graduates qualify for the Abu Dhabi Golden Visa under the University Graduates category. To be eligible, applicants must possess a degree from a university ranked among the world's top 100 by the UAE Ministry of Higher and Scientific Research.

This initiative includes prestigious institutions from North America, Asia, Australia, and Latin America, with notable mentions such as the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, as well as several Ivy League schools. For Nigerian students who have studied or are currently enrolled in these institutions, the Abu Dhabi Golden Visa represents a potential long-term residency option.

This opportunity is particularly significant given the increasing trend of emigration from Nigeria, often referred to as the "japa wave.".
