English girl lost in the mire (Help the politico!)

<p>Hey,
I'm new here so excuse any mistakes in thread placing etc
I'm looking to do some postgrad studying in the U.S., in the field of either Politics/Comparative Legislature/U.S. Politics.
I've figured that if I just overload this post with information I can at least get some lovely person to point me in the right direction.</p>

<p>I'm a second year British Politics & Legislative Studies student in England, at an okay University with an excellent Politics department. I'm going to start a year internship in the House of Commons in September. I think I should be graduating in 2010 with a good 2:1 (which I don't know how to translate into a GPA)
Does it sound like a stand a good chance at a good Uni?</p>

<p>Where do I start looking for unis? I was looking around and liked the look of GWU... but it's expensive!
Any tips, advice, help, whatever is appreciated
Thanks!

<p>Oh, should I wait for the thread to be moved, report is to be closed down and just start a new thread in the right place, or just leave it to die and start a new thread in the right place?</p>

<p>Just start a new thread in the Grad School forum. Don't worry about housekeeping.</p>
