Iran

General end level requirement

For an equivalent level of the Dutch pre-university diploma (VWO) you will need the following:*

High School Diploma with an overall grade of at least 14 + Pre-University Certificate with an overall grade of at least 12

* Unfortunately, Pre-University Certificates have been phased out. This means that upper secondary qualifications issued in Iran after the 18/19 academic year will not be equivalent to the required level of Dutch pre-university education (VWO)
