<p>I was looking at few maps of the campus and was wondering how difficult it was to get around. I mean is it spread out (can you walk to all your classes easily,or at all etc.)</p>
<p>It’s not very spread out. You can easily walk to classes. Especially from the frosh dorms…</p>
<p>One of the most compact campuses around. You’ll never be walking further than 10 minutes to get to class.</p>
<p>The campus is very compact – almost too much so I would argue, but it’s a matter of taste.</p>
<p>It has very nice “old” buildings…although there’s this one library that looks like a cube of concrete.</p>
<p>i loved the gtown campus… only problem is lots and lots of stairs</p>
<p>Exercise! Ha-ha. I actually love the “antique” feel about some of the buildings…the classrooms exude with that college aura, for some reason :)</p>
<p>AND, seeing the Washington Monument when you are on top of some of the dormitories: breath-taking for someone who doesn’t visit D.C. much or is an international 
makes you want to become an American citizen right away! Hah</p>
<p>Our family visited Georgetown last August. We really liked the campus and the surrounding area.</p>
<p>After Georgetown, we visited Penn, Princeton, Yale and Harvard. Princeton’s campus is without peer. It’s beautiful. Penn was very disappointing. Yale and Harvard were somewhat disappointing.</p>
<p>The daughter who will be going to college liked the Georgetown campus the best. The rest of us liked Princeton best with Georgetown a close second.</p>
<p>You should’ve visited University of Chicago! (although it’s not in that area…)</p>
<p>@TheRoad - I grew up in Chicago. We’ve been to the U of C campus many times.</p>
<p>With regards to Georgetown, the look and feel of Healy Hall are impressive, and the view of the Potomac, the Kennedy Center, the Washington Monument, etc. from the Village A apartment dorms is unmatched</p>
