Some very nice areas such as in front of Healy Hall but overall not blown away. [View Full Report]

It has been years since I have been there and I was taken back by how noisy the campus is with the planes overhead every 5 minutes, trucks rolling through campus. [View Full Report]

I hadn't quite expected the campus to be so multi-level - or for how much of it would be relatively new buildings. It's separate from but adjacent to the city. Best of both worlds. [View Full Report]

I loved the campus. It felt a little gray, but I think that was because of the sky. I can definietly picture myself at Georgetown. [View Full Report]

The campus is perfect for me. It may not be for you. If you go for the city, not here, Gtown is very close and urban by most standards, but not in DC. If you like rural, this is far too urban to fit. [View Full Report]

Simply beautiful. Being adjacent to the Potomac River doesn't hurt the views, either (this is sarcasm--the river makes everything especially picturesque). [View Full Report]

I just despised the lack of any green areas on the campus (at least which I saw). That was all it took to turn me off to the campus. [View Full Report]

Georgetown is a nice campus, but I think it's biggest asset is its location in DC. If you're interested in politics, foreign relations, etc. it seems like a great place to spend four years. [View Full Report]

I love location and buildings but I had a not-so-comforting feeling about the people. i am probably definitely off..but it proved to be an AMAZING CAMPUS just not the right people, student type for me [View Full Report]

I fell in love with it because I really liked the lived-in feeling. There was also a sense of history on campus, probably because of the neat old buildings and the proximity to downtown DC. [View Full Report]

Our high-standards prospective student loved it - her sister from Harvard asked after the visit "Hey Dad - why didn't I consider this place when we were doing college tours?" [View Full Report]

Compared to many other schools I toured, it is one of the better ones. You have to realize that the dorms will not be like your room at home and that you have to put ion work to make it your home. [View Full Report]

Nothing really bad to say. However, the cafeteria, Leo's, is pretty repetitive. The food isn't bad, but I can easily imagine that the food will seem really dull after 2 weeks. [View Full Report]

GU could pour some more of its funds into remodeling the place, upgrading the gym, and starting from scratch with a new library - but overall it's a great place to be! I really, really liked it. [View Full Report]

I didn't like Georgetown. I'm sorry. I spent almost all of my time off campus because I just did not like it. [View Full Report]

Great academics and amazing campus. Pretty conservative though because it is Jesuit. [View Full Report]

Enjoyed it, being a New York kid I thought that it was great, and it was in my taste. You need to definetly see it to make sure it fits yours though! [View Full Report]
