Overall

I wish I had known...

MAKE SURE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO TRANSFER YOUR COURSES. I took a few, only managed to transfer 2. AUB grades very harshly, and they even sent a letter with my transcript saying they do, but my university at home disregarded it and went by the AUB scale, effectively denying me my real grades.

In my opinion:

Most people loved it.

Final comments

be prepared to work hard, it's not an easy university to attend. Go out, meet people, enjoy the night life. You will need a decent amount of money to go all out! Typically, for me, a night out cost me over $50, and that's just drinking, no food.

“Eventful experience at AUB”

Karen A

Lebanon,
Public Health, 2023

Overall

AUB has taught me how to be independent and manage my time accordingly especially because my major, environmental health needed proper time management due to the load. It is a great university with experienced professors that are always well-organized and ready to teach.

Careers

Yes, I was provided with an internship by AUB and it was about laser and radiation safety. It is related to my major, environmental health.

Pros

Good education

Cons

providing more career choices
