About 25,000 students study for the American certificate in Egypt, in an estimate published by Al-Ahram in April 2026. Each of them has an international test that counts in the admission total.

  • Grade 12 learners who want to raise their score
  • Learners choosing between the SAT and the EST
  • Learners aiming at engineering and science faculties

How the system and its exams work

How the American certificate counts for admission

The equivalency combines an international test score with school grades. Under the 2026 rules the SAT 1 score is divided by 1600 and weighted at 60% of the equivalent total, with a minimum of 1050, and EST and ACT scores are converted with ministry tables.

SAT
The College Board test; the 2026 minimum for SAT 1 was 1050 out of 1600.
SAT 2 for science faculties
A minimum of 1100 out of 1600 under the 2026 rules.
EST
The Electronic Scholastic Test, accepted by Egyptian universities in place of the SAT. In 2026, EST I ran on 23 January and EST II on 24 January, with a March session after.
ACT
Also accepted, with the score converted by ministry tables.
Sending scores
Learners send SAT scores from College Board to code 7437, the code of the Faculty of Engineering at Cairo University.
Identity subjects
Arabic and history carry 10% each in the certificate made equivalent to the Thanaweya Amma.
