Overview
American University of Sharjah welcomes eligible students from institutions with active AUS exchange agreements for semester exchange, with tuition treatment governed by the relevant agreement and housing paid separately.
Complete opportunity details
The current AUS incoming exchange guidance distinguishes exchange students from fee-paying study-abroad visitors. Exchange applicants must come through an institution with a valid AUS exchange agreement. The university states recurring incoming application cutoffs of October 31 for Spring and May 31 for Fall. An exchange agreement can provide a tuition waiver for up to two semesters depending on the agreement, while housing is not covered by the exchange agreement. AUS also provides visa-process guidance for admitted international participants. No stipend, airfare or universal financial award is claimed.
Eligibility requirements
Applicants must be students of an institution with a valid exchange agreement with AUS and satisfy the university's incoming exchange eligibility and course prerequisites. Home-institution coordination is required.
Tips for this visa & mobility opportunity
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Confirm that your home institution has a current AUS exchange agreement.
- Budget for housing and other personal costs because the exchange agreement does not cover housing.
- Verify the official immigration, program or host-organization requirements before paying fees or sending documents.
- Check passport validity, financial evidence, insurance, appointment and processing-time requirements early.
- Do not rely on third-party claims of guaranteed visas; final decisions are made by the responsible authority.
Verification notes
Verified against the current AUS Incoming Study Abroad and Exchange Students page, updated May 14, 2026. Recurring semester cutoffs and agreement-dependent tuition treatment were preserved without inventing a year-specific deadline.
