I’m an incoming freshman planning to start next week and it just hit me… can I get to The Vern in 30 minutes?
I have a class in Elliott ending at 2pm then my next class at Ames Hall on The Vern starting at 2:30pm, will I be able to make it in time? The Vern course is, UW 1020 and I’ve heard depending on those professors they may be flexible… pls LMK!!
Pls help me decide 🫠🫠🫠
Context: I’m an Asian male from the west coast applying for Political Science. Here’s my dilemma:
George Washington University - COA ~23k
vs.
University of Maryland - COA ~40k (out of state tuition)
Cost isn’t too much of an issue, but I got in for public policy for both schools. I got off the UMD waitlist yesterday and have been struck with this dilemma since. I committed to GWU, but as UMD’s higher rank and renowned name I shortly realized it could be a consideration. I want to go to law school, and hear that going to GWU puts you in a position where you’re kind of lock into DC, which I’m ok with, but I mainly considered GWU over other colleges such as William and Mary, Pitt, Indiana, and Lehigh (all AMAZING schools), because of its location in the capital. Location aside, I heard that academics at GWU aren’t the strongest , which leads me to my issue of UMD… the opportunity of GWU is incomparable with its location in downtown Washington DC: endless internship opportunities, city life, and a fabulous public policy program. On the other hand, UMD is just 30 minutes away from the city, stronger academics, more costly, and a pretty big public school. I have until May 22 to decide to enroll in UMD if I so choose.if anyone knows anything about these schools that could help weigh my options, PLEASE!!!
