I want to know the answer to the following question:
When did the al-Qarawiyin officially become a university?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The madrasa of al-Qarawīyīn, one of the two surviving madaris that predate the founding of the earliest medieval universities and are thus claimed to be the "first universities" by some authors, has acquired official university status as late as 1947.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
