Sophomore Success Program A second-year initiative, AMU’s Sophomore Success Program combines the latest research about the “sophomore slump” and empowers students to apply the strengths of the liberal arts into their careers. The program is a two-semester initiative that helps students gain a better understanding of the liberal arts, teaches them public speaking skills, helps them identify and articulate their strengths, and provides them with a faculty mentor to assist their exploration. Vibrant Employer Partnerships With access to 600-plus employers locally and nationally, as well as a supportive and connected alumni network, students at AMU are well positioned to find the internships, jobs and graduate programs they need.
