GW is a really unique university. It combines its incredible location in the heart of DC with interesting professors and internships. There's a large range of classes, and the dorms are the best in the country. The students are very hard-working and involved in student organizations. Students are constantly studying and utilizing the university's resources Monday-Friday.

However, come Friday afternoon, the night life is incredible. Not everyone is into partying here, but DC is so much fun anyways! With all the theatres, concerts, restaurants, and festivals, it's impossible to be bored.

Of course, there's lots of university's in great locations. No one should come to GW just to be in DC. It's important to be apart of the campus, and there's lots of opportunities for that. People are extremely busy and intelligent at GW, and it can be intimidating to first-year students. Sometimes it seems that people here are business associates and not casual students. Don't let that get to you, people here are generally nice and friendly as long as you make an effort to meet them in this fast-paced environment.
