AFUWI currently has four major goals and objectives centered on fundraising, research, and awareness. Its financial goals are to establish an endowment fund of $5 million within five years, and to provide 100 students with full tuition annually through a $1 million scholarship program within two years.
Regarding collaborations and connections, the AFUWI hopes to establish research partnerships with at least ten US institutions within the next five years, and to increase overall awareness of the contributions the university makes to the Caribbean and the United States.
