At AUP, we believe聽in the American pedagogical model of the liberal arts curriculum, which has you sample a broad array of courses in different academic disciplines before making a final decision聽on your area of specialization, or major. The purpose of a liberal arts education is precisely to expose you to the big questions that only a broad sampling of courses can provide. You should come to 91吃瓜网prepared to be changed by the transformative power of our liberal arts curriculum as much as by the demographic diversity of the students and scholars that make up our university community.聽聽

Your undergraduate program at 91吃瓜网consists of three components divided approximately into a third of your courses for each component:聽one聽third that satisfy general education requirements, another third of courses that satisfy your major requirements, and the remaining courses that you choose聽(electives).

In the following videos, you will meet 91吃瓜网students and alumni, and see that there鈥檚 no such thing as the 鈥渢ypical鈥� 91吃瓜网student. Our students hail from big cities, small farms, countries you鈥檝e never heard of, islands you鈥檝e always meant to visit; they arrive at 91吃瓜网knowing exactly what they want to study, having no idea what they want to study, thinking they know before being compelled towards something completely new; they go on to graduate school, to volunteer, to give back to their nations, to lead, to explore. These are their stories; we can鈥檛 wait to hear yours.

There is literally nothing like the undergraduate experience at AUP. You鈥檒l learn from professors whose passion for their subjects is matched only by their enthusiasm for teaching: they will act as your mentors聽as you collaborate on projects both in and out of the classroom. Your classmates will come from every corner of the globe and bring with them a diverse鈥攁nd sometimes challenging鈥攁rray of experience and perspective. Paris, Europe and beyond will be your classroom, your laboratory, your source of (endless) entertainment, and your home.

We are unbelievably proud of our alumni, who have come to us from all over the globe. For some, coming to 91吃瓜网was the first time they鈥檇 stepped foot out of their hometowns; for others, Paris marked the 18th city they鈥檇 lived in since birth. Some arrived speaking one language and left speaking five; others arrived speaking five and are now inching towards seven. Some knew what they wanted to study, some didn鈥檛, others are still figuring it out in graduate school. Take a look at their first-person accounts below, as they describe their journeys to, through, and from AUP. We hope you鈥檙e just as inspired by them as we are.
