History & Background
Misr American College is a member of a larger group of educational institutions dedicated to excellence in learning. Founded and managed by the ElRashidy family, M.A.C.’s commitment to quality education is reinforced by the collective experience our affiliated educational institutions, ensuring that students receive a well-rounded and enriching educational experience.
Orouba Language School in Dokki
The El Rashidy family has been dedicated to the field of education for over 60 years. Founded by Mr. Hussein El Rashidy, the Orouba educational institutions began in 1960 with the establishment of Orouba Language School in Dokki.
Orouba Language School in Maadi
The administration’s belief in quality education and high standards meant that the Dokki school was a success from the very beginning. This created a demand to open the Orouba Language School in Maadi in 1985.
Orouba Language School IGCSE in Maadi
Subsequently, as the UK’s IGCSE became another important form of high school graduate certification, it was natural that, in 1992, both the Dokki and Maadi schools took on the challenge of preparing students for this certificate.
Misr International University
Believing that every student should be given the choice of a good education from Nursery to university, in 1996 El Rashidy family started a private university in Egypt, Misr International University.
Misr American College
The most recent addition to the family of institutions is Misr American College, established in 2001. Throughout the organization’s history, M.A.C. has committed to utilizing the latest curricula and methodologies to ensure that the school delivers an exceptional education to students.
