American university provides, in general, a good student/faculty ratio. Thus, the relationship with the professors is easy and close. Take advantage of it and learn as much as you can. There's an enourmous variety of courses, choose wisely according to your objectives and possibilities.

I think Finance, Management and Languages departments have a good reputation in this College, which is well ranked among US institution. So think you will have good classes anyway !

Course recommendations:
The subjects are really easy comparing to what I did in Spain. The only thing people have to take in mind is that they will have to read a lot as you are asked to read one whole chapter from one day to the other. This is specially frustrating at the beginning if you're not used to read in english.

Hard to say as I am an MBA. I would recommend that you research the subject and maybe find out from students who have taken the class previously whether it was any good.
