Application Review Process:
Once you have completed your application, provided requested documents, and paid the application fee, your application will be reviewed by our team, and should any additional information be required, we will reach out to you. Application reviews generally tend to take 2-3 weeks. You will receive an email informing you of the decision.听
If you have submitted your application, paid the application fee, and provided all the requested documents, you can expect to hear from our team within 2-3 weeks. If we are missing any required documents, please note that this will lead to delays in you receiving your admissions decision. The AUP Admissions Committee can only review applications that have been submitted and for which the application fee and all the required documents have been received.
We accept applications on a rolling basis, but please be advised that summer classes are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Therefore, if you are interested in a particular summer class, you may wish to apply early. You can email admissions
aup.edu to enquire about the status of a given class, too.
The application deadlines for Summer 2026 are as follows:

Yes, you can change from audit to credit (or vice-versa) up until the DROP/ADD deadline. For the June and July 3-week sessions, the DROP/ADD deadline is the first day of classes, for Summer 2026 6-week classes, the DROP/ADD deadline is Monday, June 8, 2026.听 After the DROP/ADD deadline, however, it will not be possible to switch. Please also take note that audit and credit tuition costs differ.
You can switch to a different class (if there is space available in the class) up to DROP/ADD deadline. For the June and July 3-week sessions, the DROP/ADD deadline is the first day of classes, for Summer 2026 6-week classes, the DROP/ADD deadline is Monday, June 8, 2026. After DROP/ADD deadline, however, it will not be possible to switch. Some classes also have pre-requisites so you would also need to provide evidence that you satisfy any pre-requisites to change classes.
On your AUP application portal, under the 鈥楢cademic History鈥� section, you can update your language of instruction for your studies in an accredited school, university, or institution. If your language of instruction was English, you can include this here and this will prompt the English language test to be waived. Please note, however, that we reserve the right to request English test results from any applicant.
If you wish to apply for summer and fall, we ask that you complete your Fall application before we consider your interest in AUP Summer School. Students who are admitted to AUP for the Fall term will be automatically admitted to AUP Summer School, so this allows you to avoid completing two separate applications. If you decide to apply for the Fall semester after you have already been admitted to AUP Summer School, be advised that you will need to complete a separate application as the application processes are not the same.
