The High School Students get to discover courses, meet universities and plan their academic future.

Edufair 2025, with its eighth edition, is geared up to offer students and parents a remarkable opportunity to explore higher education pathways. From May 9 to 11, 2025, The H Hotel on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai will host the fair, offering a platform for students to prepare for the next step in their academic journey.

Edufair brings together top UAE-based universities and global education consultants from the UK, USA, Canada, and Europe amongst other locations. With over 1000 Degree programs, 35 participating institutions, expert-led seminars, and representations from leading institutions, both local and international, Edufair 2025 gifts students the rare opportunity to interact directly with the institutions and gain insights into their programs, course specializations, and international study options.

The three-day event will be a huge timesaver for aspiring students, as they will be able to compare their university options side-by-side, saving them weeks of individual research.

Direct Access to Admissions Teams

Students may engage in one-on-one conversations with university admission officers, to seek clarification on all their queries relating to admission processes, tuition fees, scholarships, internships, course structure, and the like. These conversations can aid students in narrowing down their options and gaining confidence in choosing the best university that matches their career goals.

Expert Talks and Career Insights

The seminar series at Edufair is one of its most sought-after features. Education leaders and career experts will enlighten the audience on their perspectives on emerging job market trends, the relevance of niche vs. generalist degrees, and how shifting industry needs are influencing higher education. Sessions on global talent mobility and evolving Visa landscapes will also be valuable for those seeking admission abroad.

Exclusive Offers, Scholarships & Spot Admissions

Several participating universities tend to provide Edufair-exclusive tuition discounts, scholarships, and grants easing the financial burden of higher education. In many cases, students may even secure spot admissions, giving them a head start in their university applications.
