All new students receive a Welcome Letter from Orientation Services, providing them with important information on how to access the secure section of the AUF Learn Center. Here, students can a) watch the Orientation Video (available 24/7) and b) review the Student Handbook. Both the video and the handbook are essential resources for students embarking on their online or distance learning journey. They introduce key features of the AUF Learning Platform, including how to access assignments, submit them, order textbooks, and navigate the digital library.
Students are encouraged to frequently revisit the Orientation Video, Student Handbook, and FAQs as they progress through the program to ensure a smooth experience. A second Welcome Letter is sent to remind students of the necessary forms and documents they need to submit, invite them to connect with AUF on Facebook and Twitter, and outline eligibility requirements for the AUF ID Card. Additionally, each student is paired with a subject specialist who provides ongoing support throughout their studies.
Student identification cards are available to all officially enrolled students. Students who wish to order an ID card will be charged $50 (plus 4.95 for laminated photo option), with free shipping worldwide. In order to receive a Student Identification Card, students must request a Student Status Letter by submitting an ID Request Form with their full name and student identification number to the American University of Florida. In partnership with ISEC, our ID Card comes with many discounts and privileges, such as special travelfares, medical assistance, etc. (details placed in secure Learn Center). Study Center privileges and attendance at social networking events hosted by our various locations around the world will also require this ID Card. Many places may also provide discounts based on this card, including library privileges at colleges and universities within the student’s geographic area depending on the institution’s policies.
