I loved the experience of going out to lunch around the city spots close to College, the help available for in classes and around Campus or on trips. Wonderful, loved every moment. All the lecturers were helpful always. They were always a massive help and always helped us further our ideas.

University was probably the best three years. It was interesting and I felt I progressed further than I thought possible. With the help of the study skills department The college allowed me all the access I needed and the small scale of the college provided a family atmosphere. I feel confident to take my career in a new direction.

All the staff who work here are friendly and helpful. Security are always quick to come if you lock yourselves out and most faults are dealt with quickly (although this is not always the case unfortunately). There are two common rooms and they are in good condition. The office can accept deliveries for you. The location is great and central.

I loved studying in the American University in Dubai, it was a pleasant experience and those ears were the happiest years of my life. I have learned a lot of new things about political issues due to studying International Relations, and this experience was magnificent. Professors were fair in their grading criteria and material which they have shared with their students was easy to understand and proceed. I am glad that I have got this experience. I am the happiest person. My dream is to study my Masters and become a professor by myself.
