The Asian University for Women offers a singular opportunity to develop the skills necessary for young women who want to become effective leaders and make a difference in their communities. AUW students will be part of a diverse community of peers in which newly acquired knowledge will be used to confront the most crucial social, economic, and political challenges in their societies today. The University will instill a spirit of service and encourage students to become agents of change in their societies.
The current student body of the Access Academy is comprised of 131 students from Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Myanmar. These young women represent the cultural, religious, and economic diversity of our region, thus making AUW a truly international institution.
When the university is built and expanded to full capacity, the University will have a student body of approximately 2,500 at the undergraduate and graduate level, and 300 students at the Access Academy. AUW's target student/faculty ratio is 13:1 which will ensure a supportive learning environment and also that all students will receive individualized attention.
