AUC Welcomes New International Students
Last week, AUC welcomed approximately 250 new international study-abroad students to campus. In a weeklong orientation program, students received everything from sessions on adjusting to life in Cairo and street smarts to assistance in navigating the campus, issuing bus passes and a survival Arabic class.More
Student Services

Our students are confident, independent thinkers, which means they are smart enough to know when to ask for help. AUC provides support services for students who need academic or personal guidance.


Advising

Every AUC freshman works with a freshman advisor to choose classes, plan a course of study and consider academic goals. When students declare a major, they can choose an advisor — an experienced professor — in their field. Every advisor serves as a resource and a sounding board — a professional with deep knowledge of AUC and the wider world. 


First-Year Experience Program

The First-Year Experience Program is the new mandatory program designed to familiarize incoming freshman students with the knowledge and expectations of higher education at AUC, the skills to become self-reliant, the values of respect and appreciation for the institution, civic responsibility and academic honesty, as well as expose them to the social and extracurricular activities of university life. It is a four-day program where AUC faculty, staff and student leaders participate in its implementation.


Graduate Student Services

The Office of Graduate Student Services works in tandem with the Office of Graduate Studies and Research to provide local and international graduate students with a variety of services. Orientations are offered every semester for incoming students, and activities are planned throughout the year.


International Student Affairs 

The mission of the Office of International Student Affairs (ISA) is to facilitate the international student transition to life in Egypt and at AUC, to enhance the international student experience, and to weave the international dimension into the fabric of student life at AUC.


Student Counseling, Mentoring and Conduct


The Office of Student Counseling, Mentoring and Conduct (OSCMC) is a student centered department founded in the spirit of educational betterment on the principle that holistic well-being promotes emotional, academic, ethical and intellectual enhancement among all students; including those with disabilities.  The OSCMC provides student counseling for emotional wellness, student mentoring for academic success and promotes appropriate student conduct to ensure that students learn and abide by AUC community ethics and values.
