Read what current AUS students have to say about their Academic Support Center experience.
 

  • “ASC means a great deal to me. This department has made me grow as a student and individual. To keep me with the high standards required by the department, I have been motivated to work hard and put in maximum effort in everything I do. I have gained so much confidence as I talk to strangers on a daily basis. This department has boosted my self-esteem and made it easier for me to walk into my future with my head held high. Thank you!”
  • “It is simply a lifestyle. The things I learn here, I apply it in my daily life. The wars I fought, the sweats I had, the determination and commitment wouldn’t reach to that point without ASC.  Thank you so much!”
  • "A place to help students from freshmen to seniors. The workshop for the transitioning from high school to university was very helpful as well as the test-taking strategies. Personally, the advisors were very helpful when I was confused about my post-graduation plans. They managed to calm me down and gave plenty of advises."
  • "A tight knit group that helps students get back on their feet. Very supportive, genuine and caring people! A hidden gem in AUS."
  • "It is a place where I get to communicate with expert people who have the same goals as I do. It is gradually becoming a place where I feel extremely comfortable (just like home). It surely has been one of the best things that occurred in my life."
  • "It has continuously taught and supported me throughout my university experience. A place close to my heart, an unforgettable group of speakers and members that I’ll always be thankful for."

READ WHAT AUS PEER SUPPORT STUDENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THEIR ACADEMIC SUPPORT CENTER EXPERIENCE

  • “Before my job at the ASC, I wasn't involved at all in the AUS community, primarily because I didn't know where to start. But after I became a peer advisor, I became aware of different things AUS offers, both professionally and academically.” Katia Kanakri, ASC CAS Peer Advisor 2018–Present, Class of 2021

  • “Being a Peer Advisor has been wonderful. I got the chance to meet and work with wonderful and amazing people, gain new [skills], enjoy new experiences…Meeting students and helping them overcome some of their obstacles [has] been especially amazing. I could go on and on and on talking about all that I enjoyed, as every moment I got to be a Peer Advisor felt like a blessing.” Noor ElGhosin, ASC CAAD Peer Advisor 2019–2020, Class of 2020

  • “My six semesters of working at the ASC presented me countless opportunities for community service, self-improvement and overall development. I found great pleasure in working with the wonderful team and the student body at-large on projects that fostered advancement in many different realms of the overall student experience. From presenting workshops and advising peers to organizing awareness drives and information sessions, working at ASC enabled me to make the most of my time at AUS.” Taha Ameen, ASC CEN Peer Advisor 2016–2019, Class of 2019 

  • “The ASC has truly transformed who I am in many ways, and I am glad I was able to be part of it...It has helped me since I got into probation and has helped me as well in transitioning properly to university.” Hassan Al Suwaidi, ASC Student Support Crew (SSC) 2017–2019, Class of 2020
