No universal weekly-hour cap is invented from the verified MOHRE source.
26 programmes with verified City-location linkage
Counts include only the current UAE programme foundation where a verified provider teaching-location representative, source-specific provider identity, active accreditation evidence, and exact staging City agree. This is a partial CampCareer collection, not the complete UAE higher-education market.
ECAE is retained as a verified Abu Dhabi physical location but its two current programme rows remain unassigned. Fakeeh College for Medical Sciences – Dubai is excluded from City linkage pending a verified Dubai teaching-location source.
Living-cost methodology
AUS 2026–2027 residential hall fees are published per semester, not per month. The source-native AED 7,000–15,000 semester range is retained without inventing a monthly conversion.
