My S applied RD, and did not apply to the Honors program. He planned on going to a state school since that was the most affordable school for us.

Without him doing any of the add’l applications, GW put him into the Honors program, and gave him a half-tuition scholarship, so GW turned out to be the cheapest school he got accepted to. He’s now a senior there, and has loved every minute of GW. He says the professors have been great - even better than he was hoping for, and the campus, while not Bucknell by any means, is very nice, in his opinion.

And you know those classes that so many colleges picture on their brochures - students sitting in a ring outside on a lawn? Well, you’ll never see that picture on GW’s brochures, but that’s exactly what he did have: several classes, outside, under the cherry blossoms in full bloom. GDub was a great fit for him.
