Admissions

The American University of Armenia seeks to admit students with demonstrated scholastic achievement, high intellectual potential, and the motivation to accomplish goals that are commensurate with the University's desire to prepare leaders for Armenia and the surrounding region.  Students are selected on the basis of their academic record, including individual and scholastic achievements.

AUA currently offers graduate instruction leading to the Masters degree in eight graduate programs: Business Administration, Industrial Engineering and Systems Management, Computer and Information Science, Law, Comparative Legal Studies, Political Science, Public Health, and Teaching English as a Foreign Language.  Program requirements and courses are described in detail under the respective College, Department, or School.  By way of preparing for the academic program, AUA also offers its students instruction in the English language and in computer applications.

Because the number of students who can be accepted is limited, admission to AUA is based on a detailed review of the applicant's academic record and an assessment of the applicant’s seriousness of purpose in seeking to undertake graduate studies at AUA. 

AUA offers graduate programs that are intended to develop critical analysis and depth of knowledge in chosen fields of study through advanced coursework, independent study, and research. By offering its instructional programs in English, AUA strives to make these programs accessible to qualified individuals from throughout the region.
