The school is great and there are countless opportunities offered on a daily basis. The location is superb because the metro stop is conveniently located on campus, so getting into the city is just a few minutes away on the metro. Everyone is friendly and personable and willing to help.

There's little to complain about at CUA. Sure, we all have our occasional gripes (the only ones I can recall are that the Student Restaurant is too small, and that residence halls are becoming single-sex), but CUA is such a fantastic place. The students and faculty are welcoming and kind; the campus has its own Metro stop (super-convenient for going to museums, shows, monument-hopping), and it's next to the largest church in the Western hemisphere (you can even live next to it.) The combination of accessibility to one of the most vibrant U.S. cities and the strong sense of community makes CUA one of the most enjoyable places in all of Washington, D.C.

The one thing I love about the school is the surrounding area. I'm from the area so I loved it anyway. The metro is on campus so it's really easy to go out and explore and have fun. The campus hosts a lot of activities throughout the year. I wouldn't say its my favorite place to be for student activities. But it's not awful either. I also wish there was more diversity. As an African-American Student, there isn't much offered for us either. The school is majority Caucasian. It would be nice for the school population to not be so homogeneous. If I could do it again, I probably would not have gone here.
