Experienced AU Grad Open for Questions

<p>To be fair, I am male, but I hope I can answer your question about the girl/guy ratio. I honestly almost never realize it around campus, unless for some reason there’s an unusually high number of females in a class, but that’s usually abnormal and depends on what class. In Kogod (business school) it’s about 50/50 male-female, but in International Service it’s about 3:2. Also the more recent freshman classes have been slightly more even in the ratio. I also think being in a big city helps a lot, because once you step off campus there isn’t any big imbalance and there’s lots to do. I don’t think you’ll encounter any obstacles to a great social life, but maybe a female student could chime in and give you their perspective?</p>

<p>You’ll find that GW and any other school that’s heavy in the liberal arts and sciences has a higher number of females than males (I only use GW as an example because I know their ratio is also about 3:2 in favor of females). That’s just the demographic of who’s going to college these days.</p>
