Student Code of Conduct
The student code of conduct provides a clear statement of the student expectations at American University of Yangon in respect of academics and personal behaviors. All students must meet the standard of behaviors as they participate in University activities and when they interact with other students, faculty, administration staff, kitchen staff, guards, and all other members of the University community. This handbook provides a structure of development and management of student conduct in order to promote high levels of professional behaviors and ethical standard within the university and to resolve issues fairly, promptly and efficiently.
Grades and Transfer Process
To transfer to American universities, students must have at least 2.40 CGPA, 60 credits, TOEFL iTP 520 or IELTS and 5.5 and have taken the golden 4 subjects: MATH 45/MATH 150, PHIL 25, COMM 7 and ENG 10.
Grade reports for mid-term and end-of-term are to be signed by the student’s Parent /Guardian.
Failed grades or grade ‘F’ will not count towards credit. Therefore, remedial work is mandatory. Doing remedial work (retake) provides students with an opportunity to improve their grades. Their old grade will be removed and the new grade will be used in calculating their CGPA. Retake fees are $1000 per course.
Students who receive a grade of D will also be able to do remedial work, if required, to increase their GPA. Grade ‘D’ students will still obtain credits. Retake fees will still apply.
Please carefully read the “Grades” section in the student code of conduct guidelines provided.
