About The Universal American School (UAS)


The Universal American School, Kuwait (UAS) is a private nonprofit co-educational college-preparatory school serving multinational students from Nursery to Grade 12. UAS opened in September 1975 with approximately 300 students to begin a high-quality tradition in academics, athletics, fine arts, and extra-curricular activities.

The school isn't the best, the people there gang up on other boys/girls , students are always out of class and when the students do a big problem they give a stupid punishment but they they do a small problem they give a harsh punishment, I would say don't take your kids to this school because every year the teachers and students are leaving and changing and fees are high for nothing. Students who went into the school have had parents shouting at them and anxiety and more problems

- Teacher for 8th Grade Science - UAS is overall a decent school.. what are the cons you may ask? Well its VERY depressing in the halls unlike other public and private schools. Also Its very disorganized. Teachers from my prospective are rude, so as many other employees here. And there was this one staff member that I ABSOLUTELY HATED. She screamed for no reason complains about student behavior even though she's in the wrong most of the time. She pulls people by the shirt and.. I cant mention more information I will not be saying her name due to respect. Thank you for reading this review.

The schools education is excellent. It truly prepares your kids for college and simplifies the first couple of years for your kids.
