We welcome Visiting Guests-in-Residence (VGiR) to our campus.

VGiR's include personnel that are not hired as AUS employees, yet need to have access to AUS facilities in order to conduct their research and/or help AUS faculty in research-related activities utilizing no AUS research fund or self-funded.

• selected scholarship recipients (e.g., the Fulbright program) and research assistants
• visiting faculty (e.g., Fulbright scholars, faculty on sabbaticals)
• doctoral students conducting dissertation research
• future graduate students who are awaiting their admission into AUS graduate programs
• visiting scholars

All relevant departments and personnel must ensure that the Office of International Exchange Programs is notified at least 12 weeks prior to the scholar's arrival date on campus.
