Student review [#37360] for Architecture and Civil Engineering
at American University - AU

A Great University Experience – Located in NW DC, near Maryland, the campus has a suburban feel with all the perks of a city. The campus is small enough not to get lost, but big enough that you can always meet new people if you wish. Unlike GW, American University has a main campus around a large quad. Freshmen and sophomores usually live on campus, which is great if you’re just getting used to making friends. When you are a junior or senior, you will have enough friends and understand the city enough to move off campus and enjoy your independence (and most likely closer to your favorite internship, job, or night spot). As a spring graduate, I will certainly look back fondly on my years here.
