Best place for learning Arabic
November 24, 2021by: Giada Goi - ItalyAUC provides international student with great support before and during their stay in Cairo, and offers them a variety of cultural and recreational activities to enjoy their time in Egypt in the best way possible. The ALIN courses are a full-immersion in the Arabic language and culture and I feel like my language skills improved a lot in just a few months. The workload is heavy but every effort is worth it! I am having the time of my life in Egypt!
Amazing immersion !
November 07, 2021by: Maé Baur - FranceThis semester at AUC was an opportunity to meet a great community, experience a dynamic American education with a tailored curriculum! I recommend this program with my eyes closed! The pedagogical support was present with a particular focus on mental health, necessary in these uncertain times. In addition, our safety was more than assured.
