Final comments
When you ask anyone about ABAC/AU, they'll say it's a beautiful school with rich students. What they won't tell you is the staff are assholes and could give less shit about you. The courses are easy, teachers are either really good or bad. ABAC students are arrogant, not all, but most of the girls are. They think they're queens, when in reality, they're weak inside and need someone to care for them. Nightlife? You wish. Also, it's hot. If you're an international student, don't expect to be allowed in any non-international clubs. The system does its best to take your money. If you don't like a teacher and wants to change section, 50% will be refunded. They will charge you for every little thing.

Not a great school

The staffs there are rude, arrogant and careless. They are so unprofessional and the online staffs are not helpful at all. The only great thing about the school are the buildings, anything other than that sucks. Some professors there don’t even really understand what they’re teaching, simply just reading off the slides. Not to mention how some professors wouldn’t show up to class without any notice beforehand. The whole school experience seems so unprofessional, unorganized and the staffs aren’t really working as a group. Moreover, all they care about is MONEY. Highly do not recommend this school, especially to foreign students. They don’t seem to have respect for the international students, more privilege goes to Thai students.

Honestly, it's simply shit. Most of the teachers and staffs treat you like a piece of trash. Unless you suck up to them, like literally, you're doom to fail. One teacher that I had experience with - as with every other one of my seniors who took her class, you won't get a full A no matter how hard you work if you don't have blonde hair, blue eyes and a dick. Another female teacher also thinks she's so high and mighty. She literally made a female student stood in front of the entire class and scolded her for missing a few classes. The kid pretty much told her that she was suffering from depression and told her that she did try contacting her...Like, bruh, she literally just missed 3 classes. Give her a break. The teacher made fun of her so much I thought the girl was going to cry but she didn't. Then, another female teacher hit a student who fell asleep in her class on the head with her microphone. Not being sexist. I am also a female. I'm just seeing so many female teachers in ABAC not acting like one. The other staffs, both male and females, aren't that great either. Some are just simply rude and arrogant. Oh, the head of business administration also is a bitch. I once went into her office to try and get her signature for a document AFTER I've asked the front desk AND they had told me to just go in there and get the signature. So, I did just that. I walked to the door of her office which was wide open and gently knock on it. The woman looked up and annoyingly asked me what do I want. I said I was here to get her signature. She said, "Is there no front desk?" I told her, "Yes, they told me to come here." She replied, "Who do you think you are? Get out of my office." Like, bruh. Who tf do you think you are, a goddess of some sort? Anyways, there are lots of dramas. Let's just get it over with - Don't go to this university. There are other unis you can go to whose staffs would treat you better than this. The registrars at ABAC takes an eternity to get things done for you. Trust me...Don't waste your money and time here. Go elsewhere.

The one good thing about the university...nice building. That's it.

The courses are about the business and some lecturers suck at teaching but but some very good. Most of Thai students suck at English even though senior.. for me as a international students, its hard to get along with Thais. they tend to speak Thai with their friends 😂  and most of students activities in Thai so foreign students cannot join any activities. I don't  know why it is international university

To Assumption University, First off, I would like to tell you that we foreign come to study at your campus so that we get better job not just studying because of your fancy building. You attract many young students from countries such as India, China, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Africa, Laos etc. by marketing yourself  with your beautiful campus and deceive young students. You don't inform to foreign students about law on Hiring Foreigners to work in Thailand. No foreign students would ever study at your university or any universities in Thailand if they knew about hiring policy in Thailand. 
I have graduated from your university in 2017 and I never got any responses when I applied for job in Thailand. Turns out that Thai government has a double standard law priotizing Thai citizens first in the workplace and not giving any priority to foreign students who graduated in Thailand!!! I got to know all these by the time I graduate which is too late. I went to ask for advice to the President of the university BROTHER BANCHA. He never allowed me to walk into his office and his secretary cursed me in Thai and made me get out of the campus.
Studying at Assumption University for foreigners is NOT WORTH IT.
  We should Better study elsewhere such as Canada where you can study at same cost and also get work permit after graduate.

Organizational disaster, Mostly incompetent teachers with extremely inflated egos. Not allowed to ask any questions in class. Staff seems to enjoy publicly humiliating students. Complaints filed by students only results in a target on their back. I witnessed 5 students quit because of this.

International for namesake. Education standard shockingly low, most thai teachers cant speak english. Please note this is a generalization, there are some great thai teachers there too. But 1/30 is not a good ratio.

International affairs was the most racist department. I will avoid mentioning the details by race, but there are pre-defined preferences and hierarchies. Certain races will require additional checks and documentations. The admission form has "Race" and "Religion". Caucasian and Catholic is the holy grail.

All announcements are done in thai, every poster is printed in thai. Failing to comply to mandatory announcements that were made in thai are punished. They make sure foreigners are the Aliens. Segregation is open, they dont even pretend to hide.

You can go to classroom without a paper or pen, but you better tuck your shirt inside! Its all just a grand show. I am appalled by my experience.

0 support from uni regarding internship or career development of any sort. There is an assigned advisor who does not advise at all. Absolute 0 guidance and abundant misinformation. You can get better advice by buying a beer for a stranger at a bar.
