AU is the best school in the nation for Internships. It really helps you widen your horizons with an extreme amount of opportunities. It is a tight community and I wouldn't change my decision for the world.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
My number one tip is to take your college search seriously. Choosing the right college for you is a big decision and honestly, transferring is a pain. It's an exciting time, so make sure to get excited about it!
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The work at my school was the hardest part to get used to. However, it has made me a better student and person and I have much better time management skills than before. I also have learned how to not procrastinate.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I love living in a dorm. They are pretty nice and almost all of them have wall units filled with storage. Living in a dorm has been a great experience because there is always someone around to hang out with.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Our dining hall, Terrace Dining Room, can have its ups and its downs but there is always something to eat. We also have a lot of other options such as a panini place, Einstein Bagels, the tavern, and our own place that's kind of like Chipotle.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
Our school is really expensive, but we have great resources here too. We are number one in the nation for internships and we have a great career center that can help you find a job even once you're an alumni!
Which types of students will excel at your college?
Students who want to live on a campus, but still in a city. Also, it's great for students who are serious about their studies but also want to go out and experience things.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
We have over 150! There's basically something for everyone. And if we don't have what you want, it's really easy to make a club.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
We have two types: social (the normal college greek like) and professional (which all have an aim like community service, honors, etc.) We have a small percentage so it's here if you want it, but it doesn't harm you in any way if you don't.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
We are so safe! We have public safety but we are also in the safest quadrant of DC.
