What is unique about George Mason University compared to other schools I considered are a lot of factors. First, the location of the main campus in Fairfax, VA is geographically very balanced. It is ideal for looking for internships, jobs and networking opportunites because you can take the Metro to D.C. Also Mason has numerous opportunities for undergraduate studies and research. B But most of all, the diversity on campus is amazing. It is so nice to walk on campus everyday and see that the student body population consists of many cultures and ethnic backgrounds.

My school is unique because of the amount of diversity on campus. With people from all over the country and even the world, the experiences and learning abilities are endless.

It is twenty miles from the nation's capital, which makes for a fun time. Also, all of the people here are extremely nice and helpful.

Compared to other schools, George Mason University gives students the ability to make their own academic decisions as well as political decisions. Just because the authorities belong to a particular political affiliation does not mean all students should tend to belong there. I have seen places where the authorities try to impose such decisions on students and go as far as inviting people who share the same political views to speak at their school gatherings. George Mason University tends to be very distinctive in that respect, and the ability to make their own decisions is what most students need.

You'll pay more for a parking pass here than any other school in Virginia.

George Mason is strictly a commuter campus with most of its students wrking full time while taking upper part time to full time course loads.

It's such a massive campus, and sitting near Fairfax and DC, there's always something to do. There should be no excuse to not having a social life outside of school.

George mason university is best for any students who are considering any major apart from health and sciences. It is because I found many students, which have liberal arts as their concentration, peacefully and smoothly completing their course plans. Moreover, these students have access to 2x more opportunities as the science major counterparts. If and only if the university had any sciences' schools - for example: dental schools, etc- i would be the first person to not to think about transfering to other institutions. The reason i am saying that is because the univesity is very well-organised in almost everything.

It's diversity is unparalleled; you hear at least two different languages being spoken every time you step out of your dormitory. You never feel alone in your own bubble. You'll always have counterparts who share the same interests and goals as you do or make you approach something in a diverse way. George Mason University is truly "where innovation is tradition."

I love that GMU is so close to Washington, DC, yet still has a normal campus. I love living in a city and always having something to do and somewhere to go. Also, if you put forth an effort, Mason has great opportunities to get involved with research and has many great professors and graduate students who teach undergraduate courses that are always willing to help students.
