How does any one person know about all the aid GWU gives out. If you don’t like your aid package, don’t go to GWU. If you think GWU is bad, I hope you didn’t apply to NYU.

Get accepted to both schools. I got a presidential scholarship, and honors at GWU. But I chose to give it up to go to Stern at NYU. NYU’s finacial was less than half of GWU’s. Although I used my GWU offer to appeal my NYU offer. NYU then gave me a little more moey, coming in at about 50% of GWU.

But I really wanted to go to NYU and live in the city. GWU was my third choice, behind NYU and Emory. For GWU, I liked the compact campus and the city, but for my major finance/international finance, I thought NYU’s program was the best for me.
