All of following is my opnion. The Standard and Poor sheet for AU says that their operating results were good. The endowment of $312,000,000 is potentially at risk if they have to repurchase some of their bonds. There is a $250+ million debt. As long as AU has strong operating results, then the university is in good financial shape. It seems to me that admitting ED candidates who likely have the ability to pay for their education in full, will help AU achieve their goal of maintaining strong operating results. This is just my opinion, and the facts are found at the Standard and Poor site. See following link: http://www.american.edu/finance/upload/Standard-and-Poors-September-2009.pdf
