<p>Is there anyone who is in SFS who could outline why they chose to attend? Like, I know it is well known, etc etc, but, I am interested in political science and economics. International Relations is interesting to me, but as a suppliment to a polisci/econ major, not as a major itself. I don't know: how restrictive is the SFS program to everything "international"? What about just the polisci and econ departments at the College? </p>
<p>Is there anyone who decided not to attend SFS in favour of another similar program? </p>
<p>and</p>
<p>For what reasons SFSers chose the program over other options</p>
<p>I want to study economics and do international corporate law, but I applied to the college. The majors offered in SFS seemed too limiting to me and I want to do some exploring so...I mean, you can still take classes there if you're in the collge, so I don't think I'm losing anything.</p>
<p>SFS is what makes GU unique, imo theres nothing else that distinguishing about GU besides SFS</p>
<p>I totally disagree w/ classact. Aside from SFS, Georgetown is wellknown academically for its College, and many place it among the lower Ivies in prestige. Also, their Government department is exceptional, and the internship opportunities are endless.</p>
<p>I applied to the College w/ a major in Govt, because, like the OP, I didn't want to go to International Politics. I wanted political science. Plus, from what I hear, SFS is very rigid in terms of its course requirements, and I want the freedom the College affords in terms of taking classes.</p>
