AUP is more than the best of “both” worlds—it’s the best of the world. At AUP, you get the small, discussion-based classes and close student faculty-interaction that typifies the best of the American education model, and you get the entirety of Paris as your campus. If a full life in and of the world—the whole world—is your ambition, apply to AUP.
The American University of Paris accepts applications year round for both fall and spring admission. You can apply online through the AUP's application portal or via the Common Application.
An AUP education is an important investment in your future, and we work hard to make it an affordable one. Our tuition and costs are competitive with those of small, selective universities in the United States, and we offer merit scholarships and need- and merit-based financial awards.
We currently offer campus tours on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays: sign up for a tour today.
If you aren't able to visit Paris in person, join us from home through our Online Campus Tour or participate in one of our Online Information Sessions (OIS).
If you have not previously been in touch with us and want to find out more about AUP, please send us your questions. We look forward to hearing from you!
