Happy International Earth Day!!

We are happy to say that here at AU, study abroad travel emissions are offset by energy efficient cookstoves in Kenya. By distributing these cookstoves, they not only decrease the amount of greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere, but they also improve indoor air quality by reducing indoor cooking smoke and free up time for families.

Thanks for the collaboration and work done by the AU Sustainability office for helping make this happen!

📣📣 The application cycle for Spring 2025 is now open!! Make an appointment on our website auabroad.american.edu (or use the link in our bio) to speak with an AU Abroad advisor about opening an application. 

If you've already met with an AU Abroad advisor about your plans to study abroad on a specific program, you can email that advisor to let them know you'd like to open an application for that program.
