Meet the Admission Team
At Aurora University you will work closely with your Admission Representative throughout the admission process. We are here to answer questions, share with you the benefits of an AU education, and be your resource until the time you step foot on campus to begin classes.
Your Admission Representative will coordinate completion of your application to the university, inform you of important deadlines, and explain various ways to finance your education. Take a few minutes to learn more about our Transfer Admission staff!
