After those ten months, students move on to universities abroad either to the US, UK, Canada, China, Korea, Japan, or Australia and New Zealand to finish their 4-year bachelor's degree education under the CDPNE program.
In 2013-2014, the admission rate was 2.2%, 350 boys and 82 girls admitted from a pool of more than 20,000 students all over the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
In some cases, an early departure is allowed for selective students to study in Far East countries such as China, Korea, Japan, and Australia.
All students who pass their first year in CPP are transferred to the CDPNE ( college degree program for nonemployee) and granted a full scholarship to one of the top overseas universities, mostly in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, and Australia with all expenses covered.
Each scholar is given the opportunity to continue graduate studies up to the PhD degree, while receiving a full-time salary after working at least 5 years in the company.
