Morocco's higher education system

Morocco's higher education quality is assured by ANEAQ (Agence Nationale d'Évaluation et d'Assurance Qualité), under the Ministry of Higher Education, Scientific Research and Innovation. Morocco has over 20 public universities and numerous private institutions. Notable institutions include Mohammed V University in Rabat, Al Akhawayn University (English-language), and University of Al Quaraouiyine (founded 859 CE, the oldest existing university).

Verification steps

  1. Check Ministry recognition — Verify the institution is recognized. VerifyED includes recognized Moroccan institutions.
  2. Contact the institution — Moroccan universities maintain registrar offices for verification.
  3. ANEAQ accreditation — Check ANEAQ accreditation status for quality assurance.
  4. Document legalization — Documents need legalization through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Key considerations

  • Al Quaraouiyine — Founded in 859 CE, recognized by UNESCO as the oldest existing university.
  • French-Arabic system — Credentials are typically in French or Arabic. Some programs are in English.
  • LMD system — Morocco adopted the French LMD framework, facilitating recognition in francophone countries.
