  2. What you can study

    The language of instruction is not published, so confirm this before applying. Also check whether the university accepts international applications, what documents are needed, whether your previous qualifications must be recognised in Ethiopia, and what support is available for visa and arrival arrangements.

  6. How it compares

    Ethiopia has 30 universities, and Wollo University is one of them. Its public status and locations in Dessie and Kombolcha may appeal to students who want a university in the Amhara Region rather than a campus in Addis Ababa or another part of the country.
