American University of Cairo (AUC)

There is really a lot to see not only in Cairo, but all over Egypt. I would definately recommend visiting this country at least once due to the diversity in almost everything. Also, the local people are very friendly and it is not difficult to talk to people and to create a circle of friends.

Generally speaking, the American University of Cairo provides its study abroad students with very good housing facilities and they have dorms in another part of town that are apparently very satisfactory and offer all the necessary facilities and requirements. So far I have never heard any complaints about their housing.

AUC is a private University. On one side it was a new experience for me. Housing were out of campus but through University. Excellent location and staff. Maybe rules too stiff.

Egypt is a very nice country, the people are friendly. The University is a place to meet new people and enjoy new experiences, I recommend going there.

Favorite place to hang out all night smoke sheesha is Aruba cafe located of the 24th of July street. Favorite all night breakfast eatery, Roy County Kitchen, Can't get any more American than that in a foreign place. Many wonderful night spent there. Its located in the Cairo Marriot... Where the Casino are located also. There is also a few great night spots in Mahandessen but they are sort of underground. So you got meet the right people.
