Well, after 2 years and over $100k, GW decided to cut the program my daughter was studying. While I understood they couldn't support the program with limited enrollment, their handling of the situation was awful. GW's offer was to teach her out with classes from a different major, but still give h...

GW is an astounding university and I think it truly does deserve a 5 star rating. I am currently a student in the School of Engineering and Applied Science and I truly think I am getting a quality education.

GW is ranked in the top 10 U.S. universities in many of its programs such as internationa...

The MPH program is largely focused on issues of the DC area and not on public health as a whole. Expensive. Student association fee $400 every semester....did I mention expensive? Most of the teachers work full time and only teach at GW for extra money so their focus is not on grading assignments or...

GWU is a respected school, but the Disability Office is terrible. The people who work there (Susan Mcmenamin and Gary Stoddard) were really mean to me about my testing accommodations. They do not even care. Avoid this place at all costs if you are a student with disabilities!

Just another joke of a school filled with staff pushing their own agenda. They claim to be diverse unless you don't believe what they want you to believe. This is just another example of why the rest of the world sits back and laughs at the United States.

Please stay away from this school unless your child is mentally retarded.

Do not believe 5 star reviews here. Horrible experience for my daughter! She participated in this summer science program for college credits. She was the only pre-college student in the program. Her classmates mostly were 1...

I am a PhD student in Electrical Engineering. There are no projects active in EE therefore there is no funding in EE at all. If you have your own funding even then I wont recommend this school. Because it's hard to publish research papers, which is one of the major goals in PhD, without doing resear...

Is this a democratic convention or a commencement ceremony?
Why do the speakers believe it's appropriate to disrespect our leaders and voice their political opinions on stage?
This should be a celebration or educational achievement, not another opportunity to speak out against President Trump.

While the food was descent, the service was so so. Once the cashier finally paid attention to us and we were able to order, she was very friendly. But prior to taking our order, she continued to talk to another employee and chat about non work stuff and ignore customers. The sweet potato fries and g...

Poor Communication On All Fronts:

Resting a handful of degrees beneath Ivy League, GWU is a lovely and relatively prestigious institution.

What is not lovely about it is communicating with anyone. When placing a phone call, expect long waits with several mechanical menus of options to surf thr...

Clinical Research program director was excellent at teaching bureaucracy. Diversity and competency is subjective here. If the director doesn t want you in program your homework will not be considered legitimate work but will take your tuition and spend little time on your presence. Comments or lack ...

Very great institution and citadel of learning right in the heart of Washington DC! The environment is lit up with beautiful greenery and lots of attractions and fun spots. It's a nice time being here. Lovely people everywhere with the most amazing gestures I've ever seen. Great facilities too!

Every single department here is a joke. No quality in providing students with basic necessities, out of textbooks for virtually almost every class before the beginning of the semester, you have to request anything at least three times to get it done (simply changing your SSN is done by a human which...

I was delivering supplies from the Red Cross to a certain Laboratory in this hospital and was helped efficiently through the process of getting there :)

Also, the parking attendant at the "Hospital Entrance" was awesome and let me know that our staff are free to park there and do our business!

I landed a wonderful fellowship and cardiovascular engineering lab research opportunity in my freshmen year alone. I recommend joining the engineering school just because there is room for lab participation, but do not expect great academic standards from ANY of your classes. Although I had a great ...

If you are not local, the communication is crap. The online services are impossible to navigate through. Every other month it seems I have a new person I need to talk to and no one ever actually helps. Every person leaves out vital information I need to finish my degree. I've dealt with them for 8 m...

This university is not a place for education, but instead indoctrination. Their forced views hold no room for understanding nor acceptance of differences. When grades are issued for how well you agree with an opinion rather then the understanding of the subject matter, selective bias will occur.
