Dear International Student,

As an international Student at AUB, you will be supported by the Office of International Programs (OIP), a team dedicated to ensuring that each student's stay at AUB is rewarding and successful.

AUB is home to somewhere between 1,500-2,000 international students (defined as holders of non-Lebanese passports) from over 60 different countries; and enjoys a similar global diversity amongst its faculty, senior administrators, and staff. AUB recognizes that international students, whether degree seeking or incoming study abroad visitors, whether graduate, post-doctoral or undergraduate, whether from Jordan or Japan, have special concerns. For more information, check out the links below or go back to the "Abroad at AUB" pages in the left-hand menu.

OIP provides the following support services to AUB’s international students:

• Pre-arrival advice (following admission to AUB)
• On-site orientation, mentoring and intercultural activities
• De-mystification of processes and procedures on campus
• Advice on obtaining student visas or student residency permits
• Forums (both electronic and in-person) for interaction with other AUB student populations
• For international degree-seekers, advice on studying abroad as part of your degree
