Student review [#22993] for Business Administration
at American University in Bulgaria - AUBG

First and foremost everyone here is exceptionally kind. I would say that’s the biggest perk of the university. The professors are always ready to help and are very passionate about their subject (even though some simply are not good at teaching it to the students in an engaging way).
Many majors and minors are offered. After graduating students get both an American and European diploma (for most majors). The university follows the American system of education – as in, many of the courses that one can take are electives (depending on the pursued major the number varies). Everything is taught in English. There are about 20 student clubs – radio Aura, Olympics(organize sports events), Business club, Xaia Hiking club, The Hub (programming), Sustainability Club, Better Community club, Psychology club, MoreHonors (humorous videos and roast shows), Elevate (proposals of business ideas), and many more.
The students are expected to live in dormitories. Together with two more buildings (in which there are a library, classrooms, auditoriums, professor offices, a canteen, a cafe, a gym and so on), a campus is formed in a typical American style (but it is not closed off from the rest of the town so locals often take walks on the university’s pathways). An interesting additional fact – there is a small river right next to the campus. The main building of the university is in the centre of the town and it takes about 15 minutes to walk to it. Most of the classes offered there fall under the Business Administration and Literature majors so some students do not even have to go there all that often.
Most of the students are Bulgarian and Albanian but about 50 nations are represented so it could be said that the environment is international. Every year there are about 30 Erasmus students as well.
There is a lot to be said about the university. It certainly has its pros and cons. However, overall it is considered to be the best in the region so if you want to study in Eastern Europe, more specifically the Balkans, why not.
