<p>I got into both Georgetown and Vanderbilt for sophomore transfer and can't decide which to choose for next year. Vanderbilt is offering me a lot more money, but is it worth it to go just for that reason? Which should I choose and why?</p>
<p>Very different campus feel. Vanderbilt is very Greek oriented where you won’t find that at Georgetown. What will you be majoring in? That should help decide. School of Foriegn Service or McDonough is an easy choice. College of Arts and Sciences a little more fuzzy. Georgetown has great school spirit and a more diverse student population, Vanderbilt more homogenous. Is weather a consideration? Also depending on your major, Georgetown has very good access to great internships in DC. I really need to know your prospective major to give better advice. Good Luck!</p>
<p>both elite schools…think about the opportunities surrounding each campus</p>
<p>one hand you have D.C…on the other you have Tennesee…</p>
<p>i’d go with the nation’s capitol…</p>
<p>roll with the Hoyas</p>
<p>well my subject of study is either economics or art history (i can’t decide). But I plan to go into finance, if that helps.</p>
<p>Go to vanderbilt, because im on the waitlist at gtown :)</p>
<p>ok but seriously, if vanderbilt is offering a lot more money, that is definitely a big factor to consider because vandy and gtown are probably equal in caliber overall.</p>
<p>In terms of finance, georgetown probably has an edge over vanderbilt, especially on wall street (chicago offices though, vanderbilt > georgetown).
However, you said you want to study Econ. The econ majors at georgetown will not get recruited first, because finance recruiters will definitely go to MSB first. Vanderbilt does not have a business school so econ is one of the first majors to get recruited from.
Take all of this into consideration. Although in reality, the differences might be small and the fit and money situation will probably be the biggest factors in choosing a school. hope this helps</p>
<p>Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>More money is a good reason. Vanderbilt</p>
