2025–2026 Graduate Tuition Overview
The AUS 2025–2026 tuition policy reflects fairness, transparency, and academic excellence, ensuring predictable investment for a globally diverse student body. All tuition is standardized to eliminate geographic disparities and provide clarity in financial planning.
For this year, the graduate tuition rate is 1,000 USD per Graduate Semester Credit Hour (GSCH), applied uniformly across all programs unless designated under a flat-rate model.
AUS also offers flat-rate tuition for select programs, establishing a fixed fee for the entire degree—supporting affordability, stability, and long-term planning. Programs under this model are clearly identified in admissions materials and enrollment agreements.
This framework upholds four principles: equity, affordability, transparency, and sustainability, ensuring access, predictable costs, clear communication, and uncompromised academic quality.
Through uniform pricing and transparent policies, AUS affirms its mission as a private university delivering exceptional education with fairness, clarity, and enduring value.
Eligibility and Admission Standards for Master’s Programs
Admission to the Master’s programs at The American University of Science (AUS) is defined by uncompromising standards of academic merit, professional capacity, and linguistic proficiency. This framework ensures that every admitted student possesses the intellectual rigor, leadership potential, and cross-cultural fluency necessary to excel in a world-class graduate environment.
Academic Credentials – Applicants must hold a regionally or internationally accredited bachelor’s degree (minimum 120.0 credit hours or equivalent) to guarantee adequate preparation for advanced inquiry and innovation. A cumulative undergraduate GPA of at least 2.3 on a 4.3 scale (or international equivalent) is required to uphold AUS’s academic integrity and meritocratic values.
English Proficiency – Non-native speakers must demonstrate at least CEFR B2 competence through IELTS, TOEFL iBT, Cambridge English, or AUS’s proprietary EPASS, with certification issued within the past two years.
Professional Experience – While not universally required, relevant industry experience is strongly preferred, and mandatory for select programs. Applicants must demonstrate leadership capacity, problem-solving ability, and evidence of professional maturity.
Holistic Evaluation – AUS admissions adopt a multidimensional review, assessing academic trajectory, professional contributions, communicative competence, and global impact potential.
Through this rigorous framework, AUS curates a diverse, future-ready graduate community positioned to advance knowledge, transform institutions, and deliver sustained global influence.
Eligibility and Admission Standards for Program-Specific Requirements
Admission to the AUS EMBA is governed by program-specific criteria that reflect the institution’s commitment to strategic leadership, executive education, and professional excellence. Four distinct eligibility routes ensure access for diverse high-potential candidates while upholding uncompromising standards of merit.
Route 1: Combined Academic and Professional Experience – Applicants with non-business undergraduate and graduate degrees must present at least three years of full-time management experience, demonstrating leadership capacity, organizational insight, and applied decision-making.
Route 2: Professional Experience Only – Seasoned executives without traditional academic credentials may qualify with a minimum of five years of managerial experience, preferably including supervisory responsibilities and operational leadership.
Route 3: Academic Pathway – Candidates with undergraduate and graduate degrees in business, management, or related disciplines are eligible. While professional experience is not mandatory, at least two years of managerial exposure is strongly preferred.
Route 4: Performance-Based Admission – Applicants may provisionally enroll by completing two designated core EMBA courses (10.0 GSCH) with a minimum grade of B in each, thereby securing unconditional admission.
Through these pathways, AUS ensures that EMBA cohorts are diverse, merit-based, and strategically prepared to lead institutions, industries, and global enterprises.
Eligibility and Admission Standards for English Language Proficiency
Proficiency in English is a mandatory admission requirement for all programs at The American University of Science (AUS), ensuring academic excellence, global engagement, and uncompromised quality of instruction. Applicants must demonstrate competence through one of four pathways:
Nationality-Based Qualification – Automatic eligibility applies to nationals of AUS-recognized English-speaking countries. Verification requires a valid passport or national ID.
Education-Based Qualification – Undergraduate applicants qualify by completing secondary education in an English-speaking country with English as the sole medium of instruction. Graduate applicants qualify by earning a bachelor’s degree or higher under the same conditions. Official transcripts and institutional verification are required.
Professional Experience-Based Qualification – Applicants may qualify with at least two consecutive years of full-time professional employment in the last ten years in an English-speaking country, where English was the primary language of communication. Employer verification and references are required.
Standardized Assessment – Applicants may meet requirements by achieving CEFR B2 through recognized exams: TOEFL iBT (72), IELTS Academic (6.0), or Cambridge FCE/CAE/CPE (160). Alternatively, candidates may take the AUS EPASS, earning a Certificate of English Language Proficiency (CELP).
All evidence must be dated within two years. AUS reserves the right to request further verification.
