ALC is, in a word, unique. ALC is a unique institution, with a unique curriculum and a unique crop of intelligent students, taught by a unique faculty, under the leadership of a unique individual, on a unique island, with the aim of preparing the next generation of unique leaders!

Learning is fun at ALC. Obviously, we do not learn like a normal traditional university where the lecturers are the ones who actually do everything in class and where you listen to boring lectures from old professors. Like many people say, students take ownership! Classes in ALC are conversational, thought- provoking and very engaging. There’s no day I’ll wake up and feel like not going to class. Classes are fun and fulfilling. For every foundational core course we begin each week, we have the discovery session where we perform an experiential. From building high towers with marshmallows and sticks in an Entrepreneurial Leadership class to creating a 45 seconds advert for our imagined businesses in a Projects class, we are made to think critically and find out what the week will look like for that specific unit. When we get back to our dorms, we go through the self-work (assignment) and submit the deliverables as required. Learning is self-paced at ALC. Then we go into peer sessions where we share our ideas and work with our assigned peers. During these informal sessions, we have the opportunity to talk to our peers and engage in insightful discussions that would further enable us understand that particular unit. Later in the week, we go for a class session where the rough edges get smoothed and whatever we don’t understand get attended to.

But wait! You cannot afford to come to this beautiful island and only study and do academic related activities. In fact, the staffs at ALC wouldn’t even allow that. We get to enjoy ourselves and “unplug”, as many students say. There are lots of fun things to do. Either going to the beach to chill out and play volleyball, going to the field to play soccer, going to a nearby restaurant or café, having a movie night in one of the students’ residences or even going for tours within the island, ALC is the right place to be and Mauritius is the most compatible country for it!

We also have lots of extracurricular activities and student run ventures. You only need to be here to see and experience what ALC’s brilliant minds are capable of!

If you’ve decided to come here, then get ready! You're going to have the most exciting experience of your life! :)
