[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the links above! 
My kid and husband just got back from GW's admitted students day. There wasn't a schedule available yesterday so I didn't know when I could sneak away from work for an hour to see something. 
They reported that they didn't come across any professors or any current students (which was odd, compared to other colleges' admitted students days where profs and students have been on panels and given speeches and been available for questions, etc).
I'm not sure why some people think AU is a tad below GW. In everything I could find (class size, student-to-advisor ratio, campus, specific leadership programs and cohorts and trips within the public affairs and international relations schools, guaranteed internships for freshmen, and just general giving-a-damn effort), AU seems better and a more personal experience. The AU location in NW DC isn't as good for getting to the Hill for internships, so maybe that's it. That was the only thing I can see. 
It's just interesting to me but maybe I am missing something.[/quote]
