New Cairo Housing for Relocated Faculty and Staff
Faculty Housing and Location
The new AUC housing site (plot 38 on the drawing below) is at the center of the area of New Cairo, close to AUC New Cairo and only 500 meters (550 yards) from Gate 4. The ring road passes along the western edge of New Cairo. Travel times from other areas of Cairo are roughly expected to range from approximately 40 minutes (Maadi, Heliopolis, Nasr City) to an hour (Garden City, Downtown), possibly longer for Zamalek. Afternoon return trips to some areas may require more time because of traffic congestion. AUC buses run throughout the day. For more information and for bus schedules, visit the transportation web page.
Faculty members are encouraged to visit the housing site themselves by making an appointment with the Office of Faculty Housing at housing@aucegypt.edu.

Location of AUC-related housing plots relative to AUC New Cairo
Plots 38 and 51, south and southwest of the campus, are the sites of AUC-related housing. The plots in Plot 51 are owned by individual AUC faculty and staff, as are some in Plot 38. University-owned housing for eligible relocated hires is built on Plot 38.
