This school is a hidden gem in D.C, you always hear about American, Goergetown and GW but you rarely hear about Catholic University. They have a more appealing campus, your more than a number, there is a small feeling of community but you still meet new people every day, they give out more finacial aid and scholarship money then any of the other schools, and they provide a great education. If you like to party, don't let the name of our school give you any ideas that we aren't a party school. There are bars, clubs and restraunts all surrounding us and there is always a party going on somewhere on the weekends. This is the school for you if you want a great college experience both in the classroom and outside of the classroom. Everyone who works here is extremely nice because they enjoy the school as much as we do! The single sex dorm rooms is not that bad either, I actually enjoy it because you can go any where you want and come home and not have to worry about looking good first thing in the morning. The best thing about this school is that when you are applying to grad. school or for a job they will look at your diploma and not automatically think "oh you went to a party school", even though they maybe should. I should also add that if you are not into the party scene which many students aren't then this school is perfect for you too because there are many people who don't partake and seem to have as much fun as everyone else.

questionHow is the off campus housing at CUA? are you in an area with many students or are you kinda scattered throughout the area? and what do you usually do on weekends (partying wise) .. do you go into the city or are there parties on campus?

Thanks so much!
