Academic
Just as we help students fulfill their American education dream at American University of Yangon, there are also rules and regulations that students need to follow in order to successfully transfer to our partner American universities. Students will need to fill the following forms if they were to withdraw from classes or retake a class for personal reasons or other academic problems.

AUY helps the students fill out the visa applications and advise them with the follow-up guidelines for their visa interviews.
Student Life
At American University of Yangon, we encourage our students invest themselves fully to a campus where they learn, work, and play. Our program places strong emphasis on developing student-led organizations and extracurricular activities so that students do not solely focus on academics. Extracurricular activities teach our students skills not learned in the classroom, such as community awareness and participation, leadership and organizational skills, and sportsmanship and creative talents, as well as other necessary socialization skills that will encourage adaptability to life in the U.S. after American University of Yangon.

The Music club offers an opportunity to keep the student’s passion for music alive. We provide an environment where students can learn from or collaborate with fellow music lovers and talented musicians.
