AAB University is conveniently located between the municipalities of Prishtina and Fushë Kosovë. The campus consists of four main buildings, including a sports hall and a library (see the attached campus map for directions). To facilitate commuting, AAB offers free transport for students and staff from downtown Pristina to the campus, which is situated approximately 3 km west of the city center, toward Fushë Kosovë. In addition, AAB has two other campuses in Kosovo: one in Ferizaj, 40 km south of Pristina, and another in Gjakovë, 86 km to the west.
On campus, four canteens provide a variety of meals at affordable prices, with basic lunches available for €2–3. These canteens are typically self-service, and payment is made after selecting your food.
Please note that all AAB premises are strictly non-smoking, including the canteens. While Kosovo law generally prohibits smoking in public spaces, compliance varies in practice, but AAB enforces a strict no-smoking policy across its campus.
Kosovo has a typical continental climate, with cold winters, when temperatures can drop to –10 °C, and hot summers, reaching up to 35 °C, with an annual average of around 21 °C. The weather is generally pleasant, especially in the western regions of the country, which boast beautiful countryside. However, conditions can be changeable; in Pristina, it is not uncommon to experience a shift in seasons within a single day.
The dress code in Pristina, as in most towns in Kosovo, is generally casual.
Streets can become muddy or dusty depending on the weather, and pavements may be uneven. Strong, sturdy shoes are recommended, particularly in winter, as roads and pavements can be slippery or icy and are often not fully cleared. Occasional heavy rain can occur, especially in spring and autumn, so carrying an umbrella is advisable.
It is recommended that students use VALA for mobile phone services, as it is the most widely used carrier in Pristina. IPKO is also an affordable alternative. Both carriers offer 3G internet and various phone packages—for example, VALA provides 2 GB of data for €3.
Wireless internet is available throughout the university campus. Additionally, computers and printers are accessible on every floor for student use.
