Admissions

Admission Process

Admission at As-Sunnah Institute completes in five transparent, merit-based steps.

Five Steps

From Application to Final Admission

Once a circular is published, students are selected through these five stages.

  1. Step 1

    Online Application

    Interested candidates apply online via the link published on the official website or social media. Accurate personal and academic information is mandatory.

  2. Step 2

    Primary Screening

    A primary list is prepared by screening applicants against the course criteria (previous results and aptitude).

  3. Step 3

    Written Test

    Shortlisted candidates sit a written test on a scheduled date — e.g. basic Arabic, general Islamic studies, and contemporary knowledge.

  4. Step 4

    Oral Interview (Viva)

    Successful written-test candidates are invited to a final interview assessing personality, future plans, and commitment to complete the course.

  5. Step 5

    Final Admission

    Based on the combined written and viva results, finally selected students are offered admission.

Preparation

What Does the Written Test Cover?

For general students, questions span three key areas — depth varies by course.

Letters, simple sentence formation, and elementary translation — level depends on the course.

General Islamic Studies

Foundational concepts of faith, worship, seerah, and everyday fiqh — intermediate-level questions.

Contemporary Knowledge
