I transferred to AU from a large public University, and find it a breath of fresh air. The students are engaged in what is going on around the globe, nation, and campus. Students are outgoing, friendly, and bright. I find that American is located in the perfect part of DC - it is removed enough that you get a tight-knit community of students (unlike, perhaps, GW,) but close enough to downtown, DuPont, Adams Morgan, or Georgetown that you can always find something to do and a way to participate in DC. Transferring here was the best decision I've ever made.
