New Student Programs Welcomes You to AU!

Your decision to attend AU is one of the most important ones that you'll ever make. The staff of New Student Programs is here to make sure all of AU's new students-first year, transfer, and graduate-start the academic year off right. The people you meet and the activities you participate in during orientation programs and Welcome Weeks activities will help to shape your AU experience. We hope that you'll look, listen, discover, and ask questions. Staff members from New Student Programs as well as other members of the university community, will do everything possible to help you on your journey towards success.

Please note that Eagle Summit programs for students starting classes in August 2012 will take place in June and July. You will receive more information about Eagle Summit in the mail starting in March and can register for the program beginning in April.
