[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally I’d choose Middlebury from this list. Beautiful campus (an actual campus, as opposed to GW which is a cluster of unremarkable buildings), with a very strong emphasis on international studies, econ, and languages. Midd students do just fine when it comes to internships. [b]Of course you’ll find more GW and American students in internships in DC—a function of proximity and school size. GW has 26,000 students—Middlebury has 2,700[/b]. Tufts would be my second choice. Didn’t love the campus, but it’s close to Boston and has a strong IR program. [/quote] But proximity is a feature, not a bug. Getting better access to professional opportunities is a positive for GW and American and a knock on the others. And size alone can’t explain the difference. GW may be 10x the size but its students fill far, far more than that in terms of number of internships/jobs. [/quote]
