Does it seem like AU might fit my D?

D2 is a junior who would like to major in biology, genetics, maybe athletic training, or something like those, and she would like to be in a pre-physical therapy program if the school has one. She would like to be in a school that has school spirit and that supports athletics; she is an athlete. (From what we’ve found about AU so far, this may be the deal breaker. If they don’t have a rah-rah environment surrounding sports, that may be ok with her, but she’d like to at least be able to be in the stands with a group of other enthusiastic supporters of some sport.) She’s conservative/independent but willing to be in a liberal setting. Also, she’d like Greek life to not dominate, and she’d like a cooperative, not ultra competitive, environment among the students.

Do you think it sounds like American might be a place for D? She really likes the coach and the environment of the team she’s interested in, but the academics and overall environment of the school are more important to her. She’d like to be at a school that she would enjoy with or without the sport.
