I was pretty dissapointed seeing as GW was my top choice and seemed like the perfect fit.  In reality, it is everything I DONT want in a school.  The student body: Arrogant, snobby, jappy rich New Yorkers.  Sure, you can find great friends and people here, but the majority of the students are unfriendly and self centered.  Oh, and girls beware: there are no good looking, nice boys here!  And I'm not joking!The academics: Decent classes, but not as challenging as I had expected.  Easy to slack your way through.  The food: I thought the non traditional dining system was appealing at first, but its actually a nightmare.  There are no cafeterias.  All the food is expensive, and it's easy to run out of your Gworld cash quickly.  There is very little school spirit.  Everyone is very independent.  The night life gets boring, because everyone always goes to the same clubs.  There is nothing to do besides clubbing, because Greeks can't throw parties in their houses.  GW keeps getting more and more popular, but I don't think it's cracked up to be as good as they say.  The city offers a lot of opportunities, but it's not enough to make me want to stay here.  I'm transfering next year.
