Transformative Environment
As a graduate student, we know you have a life outside the classroom. Maybe you’re married, have children or work full time. That's why we've created the Center for Adult and Graduate Studies. As an adult, you’ll feel right at home as you learn about the graduate program that will help you reach your full potential. Our high-quality programs, small class sizes and faculty members all combine to guarantee you a lively learning venue.
AU also offers evening classes to better meet your needs. In fact, AU was one of the first liberal arts colleges in the nation to offer evening programs.
AU will guide you through applying, pursuing financial aid or building your class schedule. We have the services in place to help you succeed, including:
- Career Services
- Center for Teaching & Learning
- Counseling Services
- Disabilities Services
- Financial Aid

“Everybody in my family has taught at AU or graduated from here, so AU was a natural choice for me. It is providing me with the education I need to get me where I want to be. I’ve learned different ways of thinking, different ways of looking at problems. It’s not about spitting knowledge back to your professors. You have to be able to explain your thought processes.”
