Our instructors bring decades of experience to the classroom to help students successfully transition to academic life. They are committed to ensuring personalized care and attention for every student in the Achievement Academy throughout the entire semester. Browse their profiles below.

Every semester, the Achievement Academy engages students through events and activities to enhance their learning experience.

Students in the AABP regularly participate in structured activities that support their English learning and growth, such as attending AUS lectures by AUS professors and alumni on a wide range of topics and participating in workshops and festivals on and off campus.

The AABP team also organizes activities for AABP students. By participating in activities like the Week of Welcome and the Half-Way There Party, students enjoy a wide range of fun extracurricular activities in our program and around the AUS campus that meet their personal interests and passions.

These activities create a space for students to relax and get to know other students.

Transitioning from the Bridge Program to undergraduate studies at AUS is straightforward, and an AABP advisor guides students through this process.

Once a student has successfully met all of the requirements to matriculate from the Bridge Program, they can continue to their bachelor’s degree of choice and become an AUS undergraduate student the following semester. You can visitthis page for a full list of AUS’ application requirements, including English proficiency scores.

In addition to improving their English, Bridge students often say they have improved other essential skills, such as communication, presentations, research, teamwork and time management, all of which have brought them benefits that have lasted well beyond their time in the academy.

Finally, students often credit the Bridge Program with helping them gain the confidence to take on prominent roles in university life alongside and beyond their studies. Some notable positions held by former AABP students within the AUS community and beyond include:

  • President of the AUS Student Council
  • Recipient of the Chancellor’s Cup
  • Research assistant to the Chief Research Officer
  • Green Ticket Recipient at the UN Climate Action Summit, New York
  • President of the AUS Alumni Association
