This was the only Historically Black University I applied to. It was also the only school in the southern U.S. that I applied to. It was the most appealing to me, it seemed to cater more to my generation.

The people here have fun, it is not like other schools where faculty and students are separated, most students are on first name basis with the presidebnt of the school.

What's unique about Clark Atlanta University is its ability to cater to every student's needs. For instance, if a graduating senior applies to CAU with intentions of majoring in Physics, and no phyiscs program is offered, CAU will implement a new Physics cirriculum to cater to the student. If that doesn't work, the administration will create a partnership with a near by university, such as Spelman College or Morehouse College, so that the student can take major classes there but still obtain a degree from CAU.

My school is the same age as me! It was consolidated from Clark College and Atlanta University in 1988.

Nothing really. The feeling of an HBCU and the experience you get and being able to bond with people just like you.

Shyeta

The music program at clark was welcoming. Alot of the schools tried to intimidate you on the level of experience needed to be in their music program. When I went to audition for the professors at clark they made me feel as if I had already knew them. I felt at home and was no longer nervous. It was like singing infront of my family. I knew then that I had to be a part of this.

The history of the school. It is an HBCU and has alot of history in the surrounding areas. not only are we a single university, we are a center of 4 or 5 other schools with students that have the same things in common. its the best of a few worlds.

Kalani

Something unique about my school compared to others is that it is a Historic Black College&University. It was built in the late 1800's and was at one time two different institutions. The two schools combined in 1988 to become one. Also my school was one of the central places for the Olympic Summer Games in Atlanta Georgia in the year 1996. Also my school is unique because it is located in the center of the Atlanta University Center which is the place where five unviersities are located.
