Dear students,

I would like to start my message by welcoming our new students who just joined the AUD community this past Fall. We enjoyed working with you while helping you prepare for your journey to AUD. Hope your experience with us will be days that you will remember and cherish always.

For senior students enrolled in their final year at school, the excitement of finishing this year and being accepted into a university of your choice, will be a new chapter in your life to explore. Our diverse staff is in arms reach and invites you to always benefit from their expertise at all stages of your educational years. Regardless of the nature of your query, we hope you will take advantage of our open door policy and visit the Admissions Office for answers to all your queries, take a tour around our campus and get the feel of university life.

This year we have launched a new program, the Bachelor of Architecture; a Certificate in Middle Eastern Studies, open to all students enrolled at AUD; a new concentration in Interior Design (Integrated Computational Design), and the addition of two new concentrations to our MBA program (Health Care Management & the Management of Construction Enterprises).

This is AUD’s 14^th year in operation and I’m proud to be one of the pioneer members. The university and its programs have received several international and national accreditations. Details of these are found on our website. See: http://www.aud.edu/About_AUD/accreditation.asp.

Our mission is clear. As stated by our President Dr. De Masi ‘we are committed to excellence, societal relevance, and an appreciation for lifelong learning’.

Best Regards,

Carol Maalouf
Director of Admissions
