Thoughts on George Washington University?

Does anyone have any last minute opinions about this school?

I think I might pick it.

What other offers do you have?

Did you receiving any funding.

They seem like a decent choice if you want to go work at a policy institute or aim high and go for WB or IMF. But it seems their academic placements are less than desirable. At least in the US.

I personally would consider GWU, but I got into BU and that pretty much sealed it because its a better program and they offer funding in years 2-5. From what I hear funding is hard to come by at all at GWU.

Funding: NO
Nice mom and dad: YES

What other offers you have.

Since money isn't an issue. It might be a great fit depending on what you want to do in life.

Has anyone ever received funding from this school??

I think many more people would consider going if they had more funding.

TA/Fellowship/Tuition Waiver??

[uhokay]

UCSB is the other main contender.

Syracuse maybe, if they ever send out decisions.

[corolla09]

I had the same problem with Syracuse. I've been assuming rejection since late March. I even tried to contact numerous people with no response.

AFAIK, during last few years they used to fund three people per year. One of them with fellowship.
