Academic City sıkça sorulan sorular
What approvals does a higher-education institution need?
Academic institutions need KHDA permits layered over the trade licence, with programme-level approvals for degrees. Timelines run months rather than weeks, and we manage the full approval chain.
Can non-academic businesses set up in Academic City?
Yes, businesses serving the education cluster, student services, training providers, edtech, license here to sit beside their market, with simpler approval requirements than degree-granting institutions.
What does setup cost?
Non-academic licences start around AED 20,000; institutions' budgets are dominated by campus facilities and regulatory capital requirements, which we scope case by case with the authority.
