It was India's first private university to implement reservations and merit-based scholarships for students. In 2011, the school was reported to have over 80,000 students across 240 programs.

In September 2015, the university signed a memorandum of understanding with the BSE Institute, a subsidiary of the Bombay Stock Exchange, to commence a 2-year distance learning MBA program in global financial markets that will be open to students and working professionals.

In September 2016, the university expanded into the US by purchasing the 170-acre campus of St. John's University in Oakdale, New York. Presently, Amity has partnered with Adelphi University to offer global MBA and graduate programs at the New York Campus.
