Girne American University's mission is to provide education to international standards, inspired by the American model, that develops critical thinking, leadership and communication skills in students and prepares them to work in multicultural professional environments. The university aims to build international academic partnerships, offer its students exchange and hands-on internship opportunities, and contribute to the development of society through scientific research. It also strives to provide an open campus environment that respects diversity and supports creativity.

Girne American University stands out for its long history since 1985 and for an education system inspired by the American model, with English used in most programs. Its campus is in Kyrenia, between the sea and the Beşparmak (Kyrenia) Mountains, one of the most beautiful and lively towns in Northern Cyprus. The university offers a wide range of fields, including relatively rare ones such as aviation and tourism and hospitality, alongside engineering, architecture, business and pharmacy. The campus has student dormitories and sports and social facilities, and the university offers scholarships and discounts for high-achieving students and a preparatory language year for those who need it.
