The AUAF Student Affairs Office is responsible for all aspects of student life outside the classroom. The office’s primary functions include providing advisors for students, preparing campus-wide events, and teaching courses on how to succeed at AUAF. These activities are integral to the educational activities of students, faculty, and university administration.

AUAF provides limited housing options in university-run male and female residence halls, which are located near to the campus. Priority for housing assignments is given to enrolled, full-time, undergraduate students. Part-time, evening, and/or non-degree students are housed on a space-available basis only.

The Residence Life Office manages housing assignments and the day-to-day operations of the residence halls. Each residence hall has a full-time Residence Hall Coordinator (RHC) and part-time Resident Assistant (RA) who oversee the facility as well as smooth the transition to university life. Students are encouraged to visit with their RA or RHC for any assistance they need.

With over 26,000 items in its collection, the Marlowe Library is one of the richest of its kind in Afghanistan.

The collection can be broken down as follows:

The IT department provides a computer account and subsequent access to the Internet for all students. Network users are expected to use all network resources for purposes appropriate to the educational environment. Users must avoid using websites that are not consistent with the policies, purposes, or objectives of AUAF.
