I'll put it simply: +PROS+

DC is a great place to live with a vibrant night life

Tons of opportunities

Campus is great and you see people you know all the time

School is very wealthy

Resources for classes are expansive (just a matter of proper utilization)

Professors are very accessible, albeit some are sooooo self-absorbed

  • CONS-

    • Cost (they claim it's the #1 school in need-based financial need but thats because it's the most expensive…catch-22)

    The freshman/sophomore meal plans are absolutely worthless and awful

    Living in DC is also expensive if you want to go out

    There is a strong northeastern culture (you can get around it though it's fine)

    If you aren't outgoing you might have difficulties
