[quote=Anonymous]You're conflating looks with academic quality with prestige. It makes you look stupid. Looks are in the eye of the beholder. If you want an old, quaint, campus, that's Georgetown. There are other colleges with the same vibe scattered across the US. Academic quality is there, Jesuit style. This was what my son wanted. Georgetown was his top school. Prestige... well, it's not the Ivy league, but the School of Foreign Service is recognized the world over in international relations. Other departments are less prestigious. My son was rejected from SFS and went to George Washington instead, which also has reputable international affairs department (the Elliott School). He actually prefers the modern city-integrated GW campus to the Georgetown one. He was happy to get the same study abroad program at Sciences Po in Paris that he would have had at Georgetown. It's not that deep, honestly, OP. Your kid will find their happy place. [/quote]
