You didn’t mention Washington D.C. as a possible location, but if you haven’t ruled it out, look into George Washington Univ. - School of Media and Public Affairs
[About Us - School of Media and Public Affairs - The George Washington University](About | School of Media & Public Affairs | Columbian College of Arts & Sciences | The George Washington University)
It is really close to the White House and other government buildings, so you would be close to the political action ;-)

A previous poster was correct about the relative positions of B.U. versus Northeastern in Boston. Even 15 years ago, B.U. was a lot more selective than Northeastern, but Northeastern is doing a great job of raising their profile (due to a change in leadership) and has now become harder to get into than B.U. That comes as a surprise to most folks in the Boston area. So neither are safeties, but they are good targets for you and since you are coming from the midwest that might give you a slight bump. Both give merit aid.
