AUP ALUMNI ARE PRESENT IN 141 COUNTRIES “My classes at AUP were very interactive and my professors were extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what they were teaching. At AUP, for Art History classes, we were always visiting a new site in the city, going to see art at the Louvre, or taking a study trip somewhere. It is something that I really miss now that I’m back in the States.” Katie Fow, Visiting Student Spring 2011 AUP.edu A HEAD START TO YOUR STUDIES “At AUP, I’m part of the volleyball team, and am currently setting up a swimming club too.
