Graduation Requirements

The First Academy strives to accommodate and facilitate its students; therefore, to avoid any complications, the graduation requirements for grade 12 are all external exams: the IELTS, the EmSAT, and the SAT. The following scores are general numbers:

IELTS: at least 5.5 Band

EmSAT: English 1100/Math 500

We are pleased that TFA also has connections with other universities, with which we have had, and plan to continue, workshops with, in order to avail our students with a variety of choices in majors and careers to enhance their college/career lives. These include BUiD (the British University in Dubai) and NYU (New York University in Abu Dhabi), just to mention a few.

Our goal is to provide our students with every opportunity to build a bright, solid future.
