Maldives HE is small in scale reflecting country's ~520K population: 1 NATIONAL UNIVERSITY (Maldives National University, MNU, 2011); 1 INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY (Islamic University of Maldives, IUM, 2015); ~10-15 PRIVATE COLLEGES (Villa, Cyryx, Mandhu, Avid, MAPS, Clique, etc.). Plus specialised: Maldives Polytechnic (technical-vocational), Maldives Aviation Academy. Most institutions concentrated in capital Malé due to extreme urbanisation (~40% of population in Malé). Dhivehi is national language; English is HE primary medium given small Dhivehi-language academic-resource base and international student recruitment.

Always confirm a university's current accreditation with
the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in
the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any
fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an
endorsement.
Why this is free
AlmiStudy is part of AlmiWorld. It is free because its purpose is to
help people find their way to education — and the wider project
supports the Shamool Foundation, a free school for street children in
Lahore (60 students, lunch, books and uniforms provided).
