For all formatting stuff, I just used

#+LaTeX_HEADER: \usepackage{universitystyle}
For my abstract I used
#+LaTeX_HEADER: \include{abstract}
where abstract.tex is a simple tex file with something like:
\abstract{ My abstract }
If you wish to include this inside the \begin{document}..\end{document}
block then you can use the same latex snippet but without
the "#+LaTeX_HEADER:".
I hope this helps and good luck with the thesis. :)
