I transferred into AU from Dallas, Texas. I have had both positive and negative experiences, which I will list below:

First, the Good News:

AU is a first rate school, especially when it comes to Public Affairs and International Relations. The faculty are brilliant and are some of the top experts in their fields. The Business and Communication Departments are also top notch.

The student body is diverse and more politically savvy than you will find anywhere. There are always things to do. DC is probably the best background for a college student you could ask for. In addition to this, there are so many activites on campus that it is impossible to be bored.

Now the Bad News:

It's extremely expensive. I am having to take a semester off because I can't afford it. AU makes it very difficult for those without financial support to attend. This is because we are still paying off the ex-president who embezzled a ton of money from us.

There are snobby kids who whine a lot, can not hold their liquor, and have a serious entitlement complex. The dorms are small and overpriced.(living off campus is actually cheaper) Science and Psych majors are at a major disadvantage here and should look elsewhere.

In conclusion, I still recommend this school due to its one of a kind educational experience. I also met a small group of friends here that I will remain close with for the rest of my life. If you are into politics or human rights, this is the place for you!
