[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes there and loves it. He was also accepted to W&M dual degree programme with St Andrews. With GW merit, they were the same price, so he went with GW.

If one is significantly cheaper than the other, go for the cheaper one.[/quote]

GW alum.  Have a DC in W&M dual degree Programme with St Andrews.  [b]Would choose the joint degree programme even if it costs more, kids get much more out of it.  [/b]

Regular IR program would give a slight edge to GW over W&M so would depend on bottom line cost. [/quote]

I disagree. The dual degree programme is very rigid, and my kid wanted other courses and study abroad opportunities, which is why he picked GW. He talked to the Scottish programme director when she flew over to W&M to Admitted Students Day, and compared with the Elliott School course offerings and his study abroad options, notably the Sciences Po option.

Not saying it's bad! It's excellent. But it's not what every kid wants out of their International Affairs education, that's all.
