Amsterdam University College is a residential institution, where the students live and study together in a close-knit academic community. AUC is an interuniversity institute of the University of Amsterdam and VU University Amsterdam. Students will, of course, have access to the facilities of both these institutions, but AUC has its own study programme, its own academic building, and its own student accommodation complex.
The AUC campus is by no means an isolated setting. With the multicultural city of Amsterdam on your doorstep, and with easy access to all the services of both the University of Amsterdam and VU University Amsterdam, you will have the best of both worlds: the intimate and supportive atmosphere of a small-scale institution, plus all the advantages of two major research universities located in a global city.
