Welcome to the University Center

Are you looking to find more information about AU's "student center" or "student union"? You've come to the right place! AU's University CenterÌýis a space for students to gather, grow, and create their own communities, programs, and connections. If you're with a campus organization and looking to schedule an event, we'reÌýyour resource as well.

The University Center office believes in creating paths outside of the classroom for our students that will help them flourish during their time at AU. In our work to achieve that, we serve as a catalyst for developing unique spaces and services, facilitateÌýco-curricular endeavors through event scheduling, and provide developmental student jobs. We invite everyone to explore our spaces and find the community, opportunity, or just that cup of coffee they've been looking for.
