Housing and Dining at AUC

The University Residences provide AUC students with a home away from home. Nestled among palm groves, gardens and small courtyards, the residences create a private space composed of several residential units that accommodate up to 500 students. At AUC, there are two major food courts, bakeries, coffee shops and convenience stores on campus - perfect for grabbing a coffee, eating between classes or enjoying a meal with friends because eating well is an integral part of campus life!
