Most of our students after graduating with a BSc degree desire to further their studies abroad

 in America and to a lesser extent in Europe. Most of the Universities abroad offer admissions    and scholarships to students’ based on their GMAT/GRE/TOEFL results.  It is for this reason that, the Catholic University Institute of Buea is planning to operate a center which will offer GMAT, GRE and TOEFL.  The center will help the students to prepare, register and write the GMAT, GRE or TOEFL exams while in school. In this way, at the time of graduation, the students will be ready to apply for their MSc or MBA programs in any University abroad.    Our goal is to adequately prepare the students with the necessary resources that will enable them to have the same competitive advantage with their peers in other countries all over the world. These programs have standard registration fee applicable worldwide but the university will be charging an additional running  cost as course preparatory fee. The programs are OPTIONAL.
