AUA practices holistic admissions; furthermore, admission to AUA is competitive and is never based on just one factor. Both the Academic Program Admission and the Graduate Admission Committees consider academic and personal information, including academic credentials, professional experience, graduate entrance exam scores, statement of purpose, recommendation letters, interview performance (if invited to one), and more while thoroughly reviewing the application․ Decisions are typically released within twelve weeks of the deadline.
