What is ADVISING?
Advising is when you meet with your Program and General Education representatives to learn about the specifics of your own program and the university in general. Some of the questions you’ll cover include:
- Which courses should I register for in my first semester?
- What is General Education?
- What are clusters and how are they formed?
- Can I change my major after I am admitted?
- If I have a question, who do I reach out to?
- What is Peer Mentoring?
- What services does the university offer?
Once you complete advising, you will be able to register for courses directly in your student profile at https://auasonis.jenzabarcloud.com/ Below are the Advising dates by program, as well as the General Education (GenEd) advising, which is required for all programs:

What is COURSE REGISTRATION?
Registration is the period when you select courses for your upcoming semester. For early and regular admits, this will happen immediately after advising. In preparation for course registration, make sure to take notes during your advising session and have a list of your preferred courses. We recommend you have a couple of extra options in case some of your preferred courses are full.
Visit registrar.aua.am/registering-for-courses for more information. And a recommendation from our students... log in to your account (preferably using a laptop or computer) at least 10 minutes prior to the start of registration and make sure you have a stable internet connection!
The Office of the Registrar will email you with details about the dates of registration. Note that you may register for courses only after attending an advising session. During this time, we will also contact you to sign your Education Contract.

As a student, you should regularly visit the following links for details about the course schedule, academic calendar, student tab of your https://auasonis.jenzabarcloud.com/ account, and more.
SUBMIT YOUR MEDICAL DOCUMENT by April 10, 2026
In compliance with Armenian law, AUA requires that you submit a medical document completed by a medical professional before the start of classes. If you are a citizen of Armenia, you shall complete this medical document from your local polyclinic following a physical examination. If you are from outside of Armenia, ask a Medical Professional to provide you with a written statement that includes the information noted in the International Medical Fitness Form. Use the Medical Form that represents you and complete it by the mentioned deadline. Make sure to add your AUA ID number (available on your letter of acceptance) as well as your mobile number on the form.
Make sure to secure your medical document for Fall 2025 and submit it to the AUA Health Center via email to [email protected] by July 30. If you have any questions, please contact [email protected]. If you do not submit a complete and accurate medical document, you will not be permitted to register for or attend classes, and a hold will be put on your account. Keep in mind that you will also need to submit a medical document before the start of your second year of studies.
SHOW PROOF OF HEALTH INSURANCE (international students only)
AUA requires proof of health insurance from students who do not hold Armenian citizenship. You may purchase health insurance from any provider. Alternatively, AUA offers support in securing coverage through the University’s provider for approximately AMD 10,000 per month. Please note that the payment should be made in one installment depending on the duration of your stay in the country. If you are an international student physically in Armenia, you must demonstrate proof of valid health insurance during your studies at AUA in Armenia at the time of signing your Education Contract.
A copy of the health insurance should be shared with [email protected] and [email protected].
SAVE THE DATE FOR NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION and PEER MENTORING
August 21, 2025
As you prepare to start your undergraduate education, you must have lots of questions. The Office of Student Affairs is here to help you. They will organize a number of activities to help you and your family prepare for your studies. These include New Student Orientation and Peer Mentoring.
NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION:
New Student Orientation will help you transition smoothly to AUA. With support from our amazing Peer Mentors, you will learn about the various campus resources available to support you throughout your AUA experience. Attendance is MANDATORY. But don’t worry. It’s actually going to be the first of many fun and memorable experiences you will have at AUA.
We are making every effort to provide our incoming Freshmen with an exciting and informative orientation. Stay tuned to your emails; we'll send out a few more emails with more information about what to expect.
PEER MENTORING:
In August, you will also register for and participate in a MANDATORY Peer Mentoring program. The program will pair you and a group of other first-year students with a current student who will share his/her experiences of AUA through four to six sessions. Your mentor will guide and support you to become an active member of AUA’s campus and to succeed in your academics.
