| G-town B-ball is all hype "This is Georgetown."
As much as I don't care for such statements, I'd probably go for G-town undergrad and SAIS for grad with the given conditions. Now if you suddenly decide to change from the IR/ Foreign Policy track, note that G-town doesn't have some particular majors (i.e., some engineerings, etc.). So there may be some less flexibility.
That being said, people in the VA/MD/DC-area naturally hold a higher opinion of G-town than the rest of the nation, so be wary of biased opinions. From being in FL, NYC, Baltimore, and Boston, I never really heard any mention of the school until I started hanging out in DC. It's a highly rated school though.
If you are considering Johns, the commute from Baltimore to DC isn't that bad if it is short-term.
But in the end, do what is best in regards to your aspirations and keeping your options open (if you change your mind).
