George Mason University Top Questions

Describe the students at George Mason University.

Laura

There is an organization for everything you can think of, and if there isn't, it would be easy to form one. The only student to feel out of place at this school would be one with no interests at all.

Sonia

The thing I love most about Mason is how diverse it is! There are so many students from different ethnicities and backgrounds. In the JC, you could probably find someone from every country (almost)!

Brittany

My classmates are extremely smart, motivated and hard-working. In practically ever class that I am in, I am involved in a study group with like-minded students that push to do their very best. My classmates are constantly looking to learn more and do better and this in turn pushes me to work harder. I think my classmates are a great support group and we all learn more because of each other.

Jeremy

I feel that my classmates can easily be mentioned as hard-working and charismatic; but can also be seen as pretentious by some as well.

Kathryn

Having relatively small classes allows me to see a lot of personality in my classmates, and I found that for the most part my classmates are here to work hard and not goof off.

Stephen

Everyone at George Mason comes from very different backgrounds, allowing you to learn about and interact with other cultures.

Durga

An energetic and opinionated, enjoyable mix of various races, nationalities, ages and family backgrounds with different political and religious views whose ideas of having a good time range from going to the museum to a night out in DC to volunteering at a soup kitchen.

Allison

Walking in the doors of my first class at a University, I felt a sense of companionship immediately. However, that feeling did not last. I soon realized that the people at GMU had already made their friends and did not want to add any freshmen, or anybody for that matter, to their contact list. I began to follow in these footsteps, along with my friends I had made on the first day, in the first class. It was a cold year.

Elizabeth

My classmates are very quiet and most do not show for class on a reglar basis.

Jennifer

My classmates are friendly and easy to work with.
