GMU and GMU students are not typically known for their academic excellence. It's also known as a commuter school.

Alex

It kind of still seems like this is the fall back school for students in VA...but it really isn't that easy to get into anymore, but it just seems like a lot of people still think that way. I did too, and I still kind of do too because I had gotten into my first choice, but a financial situation forced me to come here. The education is really great though, so that thought process is really not deserved.

Harper

Don't know any!

Kelly

We are a commuter school and that the school only caters to commuters. Another one is that it is hard to get into GMU if you are from Northern Virginia.
