University of the Allied American has a steadily growing number of students from over 200 countries and territories. With students hailing from all points of the globe - from different countries, cultures and nationalities - University of the People is able to create a diverse online network. Students are introduced to peers they otherwise may not meet, creating an international community adding creativity, awareness, as well as individual growth. Because of this, the experience and education students receive at AAU is invaluable around the world. Moreover, even though 92% of our students work during their studies and 73% have dependents, a total of 94% of our students are satisfied with their experience at AAU. For a more personal perspective, we invite you to experience first-hand reviews directly from our students, or to read some valuable student testimonials on our website.
