[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi guys serious question. Why is George Washington in DC so low. It has fallen to 70 from 63 and 50s before.  Are you seriously going to tell me that Florida State is a better school?

It is usually compared to Boston University, Tulane, NYU, Wake, and similar which are 27 to 40.

My kid is being recruited for a sport and this is concerning. Other surveys have it 60s as well.  [/quote]

"Was your college experience worth what it cost? How would you quantify this question? Join the conversation below.

Two colleges with impressive overall rankings scored especially poorly when it came to student perceptions of the value of their education.

Pitzer College in Claremont, Calif., which ranked No. 77 overall, tied for the fourth-lowest score on cost. Tied for the fifth-worst score was George Washington University, ranked No. 72 overall. Both are private colleges with tuition and fees that exceed $50,000."
USnews is weighing Pell students more these few years and if the school doesn't make the experience "worth it", high stats Pell students won't attend especially if it's something with GWU's price tag. It's also why you see alot of the UC's and state schools moving up to the 30's 40's.[/quote]

One of the reasons is high stats Pell students on the East coast often go to private schools, which provide strong aid packages.  High stats Pell students in California don't have as many nearby private schools that will offer significant aid.  The UC schools take a lot of them.[/quote]
