I love Sides! He's very helpful if you go to office hours. Although there were quizzes every class, they were pretty easy if you do the reading. And I...

Very unimpressed with this school

Amazing School, Great Location, Wonderful Faculty

Not a perfect school for students who want to actually learn something. Most of the professors are terrible. No wonder the rank of the school is very low

Good campus and faculty overall, but there definitely are some things to avoid.

GW has issues. 1)They dont seem to care about their students. I was injured and unable to walk but my profs didnt respond to emails and DSS was useless telling me to ask others for things it's their job to provide. 2)Of my 2 yrs here, I have had 1 good class. GW is great if you have an exact plan and need no help, but otherwise, you may be screwed.

GW is great for its location and opportunities outside of the school. Internships, jobs, and mentoring are abundant. However, the school really has no sense of community and the administration commonly ignores students. Its expensive and the dining situation is a mess. Overall I loved DC, but unsure about how I feel about GW.

GW is in a great location and is a good school for driven people that know what they want to do and what they're interested in and go out and get it. But it doesn't provide any community or social support, and its major academic fields are focused on professional development rather than true learning. No dining halls - and overall caters to rich

The internet connection break frequently, sometimes it won't be able to load textbooks that you need to use in class.

Not the prototypical college experience. If you're a campus student at heart.. look elsewhere. But challenging courses, a wide variety of volunteer and paid work opportunities, and the chance to make invaluable connections make GW worth it. DC was an amazing place to embark on the early stages of my career, and it will be for you too.

This place has lots to offer, no doubt.

If you are interested in politics or international affairs or like DC and are super rich, this school could be perfect for you.

10/10 fantastic university experience.

I love DC, and I love GW. Of course there are some drawbacks, but if you work hard, if you care about what you're learning, and if you pick good classes, school can be amazing.

Like many have said, GW is a school for those who are highly politcially active. Even though there is political diversity (you will find communists, republicans, democrats, liberals EVERYTHING) everyone stays in their own groups #cliques and everyone is very passive aggressive. WORST administration. GW is a business not a school. Dont come here.
