Al-QUDS BARD COLLEGE

One Day at AQB

يوم في كلية القدس بارد

Overview

Note: The One Day at AQB program will be implemented via Zoom due to the current situation this year.

The One Day at AQB is a program that offers Tawjihi students (and those from non-Tawjihi schools) the opportunity to visit Al Quds Bard College in person to explore the advantages it offers for its students. Visitors experience the College’s academic environment, teaching style, and student life. Due to the current emergency state under which Al-Quds University is operating, the program is being conducted virtually for the Spring 2024 term.

One Day at AQB in its classic format is not feasible. However, our recruitment and communication office, in collaboration with the Division of Students Affairs, the AQB BA Ambassadors (a student leadership program jointly hosted by the Division of Student Affairs and the Office of Recruitment), and the faculty members - is glad to offer the One Day at AQB as a virtual event where students can join via Zoom the course that they are interested in.

Interested students are required to apply in advance and fill out the One Day @ AQB form to coordinate their attendance in the course. This is a great opportunity for those who are considering studying in Palestine and will help them to make the best academic decisions about their major before they apply to AQB.

Selected applicants will receive a call and acceptance email from the AQB Recruitment and Communication Office. They will also be notified about the program of their “One Day at AQB” visit.

After being selected, the students should select a date that is at least one week away from the date the appointment was made from the day they will fill out the form. This is important to coordinate the logistics of their virtual visit.  For example, if they plan to visit on April 24, they should complete the form no later than April 17.

Students can select from one or two of the nine classes offered below to attend as part of the One Day @ AQB program. The classes come from each of the nine majors offered at AQB, with one course from our Core Curriculum program. Apply!

Selected applicants will experience the following program during their virtual visit:

  • Meet over Zoom with AQB Recruitment and Communication Officer, Mr. Ahmed Hmeedat or AQB Student Ambassadors

  • Attend a course of their preference with one of the faculty members of the College.

  • Have the chance to interact with current BA students and hear from them about their experiences.
