CURRICULUM & PATHWAYS

A BOUTIQUE AMERICAN CURRICULUM AND IB WORLD SCHOOL

Universal American School was founded in 2005. Since then we have served our students every day, helping them become compassionate, confident learners who know who they are and what they stand for. As you learn more about UAS the term “community” will resonate with you again and again. We are a small, not-for-profit school in the heart of family-friendly Festival City. There is a wonderful feeling about our school which comes from our mission: To nurture an internationally minded community of integrity and academic excellence.

A NOT FOR PROFIT SCHOOL

UAS is uniquely positioned as a not-for-profit institution under the governance of the Al Futtaim Education Foundation, part of the Al Futtaim Group. This structure allows us to invest directly back into the school, enhancing the quality of education and resources available to our students. Collaborating with an esteemed organization like Al Futtaim Group enables us to provide unparalleled real-world learning experiences that set us apart from other schools.

UAS is an exceptional environment for both personal and academic growth. Our students have the opportunity to engage in a wide range of activities, from participating in our annual Fringe Festival and musical productions to supporting our sports teams and debating in Model United Nations. UAS students are also given the opportunity to be part of various student groups, such as the Emirati Committee and the National Honors Society. At UAS, there truly is something for everyone, ensuring that each student finds their place and passion within our vibrant community.
