Are AUC students eligible for financial aid?
U.S. students can apply for financial aid from the U.S. Department of Education’s William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program. Qualified students can borrow up to the entire cost of attendance (which includes tuition, books and supplies, accommodation, and travel)*.
How selective is AUC's admissions process?
At AUC, we have rigorous standards when considering applicants. Yes, we look at the whole person—we want to know about one’s life experience, volunteerism, maturity, and commitment—but we also look closely at how a candidate performed academically as an undergraduate and their MCAT score.
Are there scholarships available?
AUC is proud to have awarded more than $55 million USD in scholarships since 2009.
How can I get my Visa?
If you are accepted, for a legal extended stay in Sint Maarten, you must have your passport stamped with the appropriate student visa from the Sint Maarten government.

When you arrive in Sint Maarten, you will need to present your passport. You must show proof of a return date ticket.
