[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Prestige" is so subjective. As an example in China, GW is thought of as being almost in the same category as an Ivy. It is a good school but surely not a match for an Ivy....it is interesting to see how other countries look at our schools, the big H is still seen as the holy grail while many admit they heard of Princeton, go figure.[/quote] This is a huge exaggeration. Sure in China GW has a bigger reputation than you would expect but nowhere close to the ivies, Stanford. [/quote] My husband works overseas for a Chinese company and I would beg to differ. The general feeling from many many that we have spoken to is that GW while not an ivy is a extremely prestigious school. And not to take away from the fact that it IS a darn good school. I think the perception there if far more than it is here.[/quote]
