Dear Students,

Welcome to the American University in Dubai! We encourage you to avail yourself of the many resources that AUD has to offer you.

Student Services offers counseling, academic support, leadership programs, health care, student clubs and activities, social events, athletics, and on campus housing.

AUD’s Student Services prides itself on its student-centered approach and open door policy and the Student Services staff who are available to assist you with all your questions and concerns.

The AUD Student Handbook is a guide to help you understand our policies, procedures, rules, and regulations. A university offers students freedom to make choices, yet with choice come responsibilities. AUD believes that students have the obligation, as students and members of the AUD community, to internalize and fully understand all of our rules and policies and also the consequences of breaking rules. AUD holds students responsible for their own actions.

Questions and clarifications related to academic concerns can be answered by referring to the AUD’s Catalogs. The Student Services Office has a collection of materials related to AUD programs, activities, and events.

Last, but certainly not least, feel free to drop by with any concerns or questions you may have.

We encourage you to take full advantage of AUD’s cultural, social, athletic, career, and extracurricular opportunities designed to complement our academic curriculum.

Your AUD years will be much more fulfilling if you become engaged in campus life at AUD.

On behalf of the entire Student Services Team, welcome to AUD. Please rest assured that we are all committed to helping you have a successful AUD experience.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Bushra Finaish
Assistant Dean of Student Services and Student Support Manager
