AULA Description

Antioch University Los Angeles provides rigorous progressive education to prepare students for the complexities of today's diverse societies. Combining dynamic scholarship and creative endeavor with experiential learning and reflective practice, AULA fosters personal and collective agency, global citizenship, and socially conscious leadership.

Established in 1972, Antioch University Los Angeles offers degree programs designed specifically for the mature adult learner desiring to complete a degree and pursue personal and professional goals.

The campus is centrally located within Los Angeles, approximately where the 405 and 90 freeways cross. AULA is nestled between small, sleepy communities like Marina del Rey and Venice, as well as the larger more vibrant cities of Culver City and Palms. Just 10 minutes from LAX and 20 minutes from Hollywood, the campus is ideal for working adults who commute to campus for classes.

The current student body consists of approximately 700 learners, and supports an impressive stable of faculty who are arguably in the top echelon of their fields. Students enjoy the intimacy and interchange of small classes and usually undertake service-learning projects that engage them in valuable work within their communities.

AULA also offers a free Writing and Math center that provides assistance with papers and projects, as well as a campus computer center that allows students to stay current with their University email accounts and communicate with their departmental groups. In addition to plenty of parking, the grounds of Antioch University Los Angeles also host a bookstore, counseling center and two cafe style restaurants. Students take breaks from classes and hang out in the courtyard soaking up the California sunshine, or in the student lounge located on the first floor.
