Foreign students are also allowed to stay in private lodgings which are easily available around the campus. The Aligarh Muslim University is a residential academic institution. Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, a great reformer of his age, felt the need for modern education and started a school as far back as 1875 which later became a College known as the Mohammadan Anglo-Oriental College. This College ultimately became in 1920 a University of International repute with a number of modern and traditional faculties. The Aligarh Muslim University has more than 27,000 students on its rolls. It draws students from all corners of the country as well as from foreign countries specially from Africa, West Asia and South East Asia. In some courses seats are reserved for students from SAARC and Commonwealth countries. The University is open to all irrespective of caste, creed, colour or sex. One finds here a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. The range and the quality of its programmes of studies, social life of the campus and other traditional and cultural values make the Aligarh Muslim University a popular choice among students from diverse backgrounds. The twelve faculties of the University, namely, Medicine, Unani Medicine, Engineering & Technology, Science, Life Sciences, Arts, Social Sciences, Commerce, Management Studies & Research, Law, Theology and Agricultural Sciences offer a wide range of subjects and levels of studies from under graduate courses and diplomas to post graduate courses and Ph.
