Focusing on your classwork is important, but so is having a life. At AUM, you’ll have every opportunity to pursue your passions or find new ones. If you decide to live in one of our new (or recently renovated) residence halls, you’ll be in the middle of all the cultural, social and sporting events that make AUM vibrant. Even if you don’t live on campus, you can take advantage of everything campus life has to offer–and build a network of lifelong friends!
From concerts to student government to theatrical productions to seasonal events, there’s always something to do on campus.

Think about it! Create your own! What service could you provide to AUM? Students?
If you want to be in the game, and not just a spectator on the sidelines, AUM is the place to be. The Campus Recreation program gives you the opportunity to participate in recreational activities regardless of ability. At our amazing Wellness Center you can get in shape with individual or group fitness activities. We offer both club sports and intramural teams, so you’ll have plenty of opportunities to play hard and get fit. Everyone is welcome regardless of your skill level.
