Program Features
The GCTS is a supplementary program for students who have graduated from the MAT or MDiv program. It aims to give them the opportunity to study additional subjects that were not previously available to them, or to fulfill the admission requirements of other programs such as the ThM.
The program consists of 18 credit hours taken from the MAT curriculum. The program duration is 1-2 years (max. 3 years). Instruction is in Arabic. The program is offered on campus or online (like the MAT program).
The actual tuition fee is EGP 2400/credit in 2026–2027. A scholarship application for up to 85% is available. The scholarship application is included with the application and is awarded based on the applicant’s needs and circumstances. The application deadline is June 30th.
Studies begin on September 28, 2026.
