Welcome to Admissions at The American University in Dubai!

Excellence, integrity, tolerance, and diversity are but a few of the values which underpin AUD’s operations and growth. Our success lies in a whole person educational approach, one which values the intellectual, personal and professional development of students.

Our success also lies in the national and international accreditation of our programs. We are particularly proud of the independent accreditation granted by the Commission on Colleges (COC) of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) in the USA. New programs are introduced yearly, based on extensive research of market demand, as we seek to provide high-quality, forward-looking, career-oriented educational programs.

Quoting our President, “We are fond of saying that AUD is American not only in name but in substance. This serves as our calling card and captures the essence of the educational experience we seek to provide.” For a student to truly get the most of their AUD experience, they must get involved; so we encourage students to work towards also developing the social, athletic, cultural, emotional, and humanistic elements of their lives. We like to think of our students as Arabian Knights; hence, our motto – BORN TO LEAD!

So if you feel that you were born to lead, then you might at heart be an AUD Knight!

See you soon in the corridor...
