I posted a similar post before but I finally narrowed it down to these two colleges. I will be majoring in International Studies (or global affairs at gmu). So I was wondering which college would be better?

Tech gave me a decent and affordable financial aid package, and if Mason doesn’t give me a good package I will change my status to off campus and commute (which is something that I would rather not do), so the price of both currently isn’t an issue, they will both cost the same. I know ideally Mason would be better for my major because of its proximity to DC, but I also know that Tech is strong in all departments and their career services are great. I also really like Tech’s location and campus, and I’ve heard nothing but good things about the people, food, campus, nightlife…etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
