<p>You are correct. It does depend on what you want to do after college. S is going on to grad school for law and is more interested in corporate law now that he has worked in a couple of corporations. Now he has also volunteered in some campaign offices in DC over the 3+ years and has met several senators/congressmen along with the ambassadors. He has had a good experience AU and has many opportunities.</p>
<p>If you can’t decide, then don’t apply early. I’d also add that DC is not the only city that offers lots of iopportunities for an IR major.</p>
