Conchita

At American University, I have been accepted into the School of Public Affairs Leadership Program. This is a competitive four year program which teaches leadership through class lectures, social action projects, and internships that each student must work for. Though the program is incredibly competitive, it challenges me while I am surrounded by other passionate undergraduate students. Ultimately, this program brings together students with a passion for social change while teaching the essential virtues needed to be an effective leader.

Our School of International Service. Great professors, great building, and located in the perfect city to be studying the material. The opportunities that come with being in SIS are amazing and I love to brag to my friends about all the cool things that I get to do (i.e. go to Kenya for spring break).

It's in a really cool city, Washington, D.C. So it's fun to take the Metro and go to ethnic restaurants and go shopping. The professors are good too. I enjoyed my literature classes a lot. Some of the other classes were good too, like history and anthropology.

To study International Relations you muct live in Washington DC. It is all about politics here. The opportunities are endless for internships and jobs during and after school. Nerworking is an art here and we all learn howto do it.

I have spoken with many High School seniors about American University, and the thing that I am most enthusiastic about is the political involvement of the University. Often times, I list the politicians and others celebrities that are politically involved that have come to our school and talked as well as shared their experiences with students. I also stress the location, which is far enough from the city as to not be distracted, but at the same time the city is very accesible. Lastly, the staff at American University are both credible and involved.

I brag about the location of American University. I love how close it is to the center of Washington D.C where so many important things happen. Location and the general college atmosphere make AU a great place to study politics and international relations, as well as any other academic interest.
