Access to Higher Education
Cameroon is home of two educational subsystems: an English-speaking subsystem in force in the North-West and South-West regions and a French-speaking subsystem in the eight other regions. As a result, access to higher education is open to students holding one of the following,two diplomas rewarding the end of the secondary level:
– The General Certificate of Education Advanced Level – GCE A/L – (general or technical) for the English-speaking subsystem;
– The Baccalauréat de l’enseignement secondaire (general or technical) for the French-speaking subsystem.

NB: In some particular cases, foreign diplomas recognised equivalent to the Baccalauréat or the A-Level as well as Certifying Professional Experience may also grant an access to higher education institutions.
