[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Recently toured Georgetown, which was my son’s dream school since 9th grade. We were so disappointed. The neighborhood is great if you’re a wealthy baby boomer. Otherwise, it seems like a solid Catholic university, but hardly one of the world’s great universities. FWIW I’m a Fordham grad, and I don’t see how Georgetown is any stronger. Feels like a huge gap between prestige/name and quality. Am I missing something?[/quote] I wasn't impressed either. The info session was fine but very impersonal. The tour group was the largest we've been in at any school. It was so big I could not hear the tour guide. The dorms are in very bad shape, you can find multiple reports of student health issues from mold, etc. And they are known for rats. It was my kid's #1 choice for a while, and I was so glad when he moved on. In the end he didn't even apply. [/quote]
