I’m a 1995 AU graduate with a double major in political science and economics. I also applied to (and was accepted at) Miami U.

Given AU’s location in Washington, DC, and all of the resources and opportunities that come with that location, it’s a great place to study economics. I found the course work to be challenging and I think it provided a broad selection of courses.

I chose AU for several reasons: location in Washington, DC; relatively small undergraduate population (about 5,000); small class sizes; and scholarship.

I can’t answer whether AU is worth $10,000 more per year–that’s a pretty subjective topic. But it’s a fair question to ask, and I’m not surprised that it’s asked by someone with an interest in economics!
