Girls Campus
Sisterhood at the MUA Girls Campus
The most unique element of the Girls Campus is the unity amongst our female students. A strong sense of belonging, fostered through a deeper connection of sisterhood, is showcased as girl’s support each other academically, socially and morally, through engagement in ongoing extracurricular activities, events, projects and programs. Students are provided with opportunities year-round to collaborate and come together to interact, overcome hurdles, and build strength as a community. Open lines of communication allow students to remain close and empower their inner strength.

At MUA we believe in the segregation of boys and girls classes from grades 5 and up. This has proven very successful in terms of increased student focus on learning, freedom of expression and a practical Islamic environment devoid of distraction at the teenage of students.
The learning environment for segregated school for girls has the following advantages:
More focused learning experience
More interactive educational experience
Unites students with a strong bond and deeper sense of belonging
Empowers students to express freely and participate openly
Prepares students for higher education with full confidence
Helps students plan tarbiya programs and halaqas for counseling based on their needs
Emulates great sisterhood!
