Located in the heart of the world, AUP combines the best of both worlds - an american style of education in the most beautiful European city. By having students from over 200 nationalities, AUP is one of the most international universities in the world. It is an amazing opportunity for me to be a student here because not only did I meet people from all over the world, but every day I am learning from two different classrooms - from the AUP and from the city of lights.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
1) Start your application early and contact people from the university and tell them that you are interested in studying in AUP
2) If you want to apply for financial aid, it is crucial that you prepare early and have good grades at school.
3) If you want to be in an international university with very strong academics, come to AUP!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
It is challenging, but at the same time if you organise your time accordingly, you will have time for everything! The variety of subjects is very big and AUP is one of the few schools in which you can actually study ART History at the Louvre or at Musee D'Orsay. Studying in Paris will definitely expand your horizon and AUP understands that and that is why you can study Philosophy with Economics at the same time or Communications with ART. You have the right to choose whatever suits you best and to choose the best subject for you.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The first year, you should choose either a home stay or Comforts of Home which is the agency connected with the university. It is great because from day one you get the chance to meet a lot of people and you never feel alone. Also, most of the apartments are close to the university and before coming to Paris you will receive a list with your roommates, how to get to the university and a metro map.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
We have Amex cafe, which offers a lot of things. However, as we are located in the 7th arrondissement there are a lot of restaurants and cafes around the campus.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
For multicultural and open minded students who want to study in English, but at the same time learn French and immerse themselves in the french culture and traditions.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
The student media is highly developed, we have a TV, a magazine and a website. We have a lot of sports such as BOX, Zumba, Volleyball, etc. There are a lot of clubs and activities that you can choose from and you can never be bored in AUP.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
It is extremely safe on campus and we have security guars that are checking every single student's belonging.
