GW is a great place to be but it's not for everyone. There are people that love it and people who hate it and very few people in between. All of my friends love it like I do and couldn't see themselves anywhere else. If I could change anything it would be how much like a business this school can be. It sometimes feels like they're less about academics and more about making money and charging the students.

GW is what you make of it, like any school. Some people stick on campus and pretend its a state school, others take a big advantage of the city and live off campus, really exploring what DC has to offer.

The school is known for specific schools, otherwise it is not worth it. The tuition is overpriced with very little financial aid or scholarships. It is amazing that their is a college campus in the middle of the city and really cool that I could basically see the White House and the Washington Monument from my freshman dorm. Other than that, it

When I tell people I go to GW they react in different ways. Sometimes they ask me if I am really politically active or if I am rich...It really depends. Washington DC is an amazing place to go to school. There is always something to do.

I think the school's great. Overpriced, but location is amazing. A genuine campus feel even without a traditional campus.

I believe this school is just right. Its the perfect size. You may not know the name of every single person but you definately get to know a good amount of your class. It's in the perfect area, there is no better place than DC. I'm from Manhattan and i've had the best time here at DC that as a senior i've decided to stay here after graduation. It's become a home and like every other place college is exactly what you make of it.

GWU is developing a greater and more inclusive identity. Basketball and the campus' physical development are leading the unity. Although it does not initially appear as so, GW is a campus within a city.

GW has a great size campus. It is in a perfect location. I would change the some of the students that attend here. The majority of the students do not have a desire to change a problem in life, they just go on with their merry life. I think that the administration does an okay job in regards to everything. I do not see them overly active in anything, but this might have somethign to do with the recent change in presidents. There is no school pride

The best thing about GW is the location. I love DC and have really learned to appreciate all it has to offer.
