AUC Introduction Week: 24-28 August
All AUC students receive an AUC email account via Microsoft 365. Official emails from AUC will always be sent to this student email address. As a convenience, messages are also forwarded to the email address you listed in Studielink.
If you're happy with this setup, no action is needed. Want to change the forwarding settings or learn how to access your student email? Follow the instructions at the link below.
Before you start at AUC, please take a moment to read the documents below. They include useful tips and essential information about academic procedures, standards and expectations. These documents will be discussed during plenary and tutor sessions, so it's helpful to be familiar with them in advance.
If you have any questions after reviewing these documents, please contact your academic tutor.
We require all AUC students to leave contact details for a person whom we can contact in case of an emergency. You can leave their name, telephone number and email address via SIS. Please also state your relationship with this person (e.g. parent, friend, sibling).
Don’t forget to inform this person that he/she is your contact person.
Please make sure to have your emergency contact information updated before the start of Introduction Week (23 August 2026 at the latest).

The AUC Student Council, AUC Student Association (AUCSA) and Peer Support have put together a welcome brochure to introduce themselves and offer tips and resources to help you settle into life at AUC. The guide offers practical tips on dorm life, getting around Amsterdam and adjusting to university. From where to rent tools to how to get a bike, the brochure shares advice the teams wish they had known when they first arrived.
To be updated on this page soon.
Starting university and moving into the dorms can come with lots of practical questions. To help you settle in, current AUC students are available on the Unibuddy platform to answer anything you’re wondering about.
