Summer Direct Enroll

Home  >  Academics  >  International Study and Exchange  >  Abroad at AUS  >  Summer Direct Enroll

AUS welcomes visiting students to direct-enroll in classes over the summer semester. Accepted students are welcome to register for any summer course, provided they have the appropriate prerequisites and there is space available within the course. The schedule of courses offered will typically be available mid-March each year here. Please note that we cannot guarantee that all listed courses will run in the summer session, as AUS cancels courses without the minimum enrollment of 10 students.

Our Summer 2020 program will be conducted virtually. Both local and international students may apply.

DEADLINES AND DATES FOR SUMMER 2020

  • Deadline to apply: May 21
  • Course dates: June 9 to July 20
  • Final exams: July 21 to 23

ELIGIBILITY

In order to apply as a summer exchange student at AUS, a student must meet the following eligibility requirements:

  • Cumulative GPA of at least 2.0.
  • 550 TOEFL (80 iBT) score or 6.5 IELTS (Academic) score – please see note, below

Note:  The TOEFL/IELTS requirement can be waived for students (1) who have taken two university-level English writing courses and passed both with a B or higher; and (2) who are applying from universities in the US, UK or Canada. However, if there is any doubt regarding the student's English-language abilities at any point during the admission process (based on spoken or written communications), AUS reserves the right to require students to take a TOEFL exam upon arrival to AUS campus, and at that point students will need to achieve the required scores in order to maintain enrollment.

Please note that eligibility requirements are different for graduate students. Contact [email protected] for more information.
