It is. The two schools are pretty comparable academically in most areas except for the sciences (where GW is somewhat stronger although neither are great). The biggest differences are cultural. GW is very urban, with no real campus (except for Mt Vernon, which is a schlep). In this way, it is more like BU or NYU. AU is a more traditional college campus–almost suburban although it is still in DC. Go with the one which is more comfortable to you.
