<p>It seems to be very strong in politics and foreign languages, but what about english literature and other humanities areas? I don't hear any mention of these subjects when people discuss georgetown's strong points, so how are they? also, how is georgetown's fin aid for transfers? thanks.</p>

<p>actually, that is what everyone confuses Gtown about. They are not particulary strong in political science or politics. what they are strong in--international relations. Other than that, Gtown is not too strong in anything.</p>

<p>Georgetown is not bad, but I would choose other schools if your only interest is in the sciences.</p>

<p>You can do the research by yourself, but as an initial step in your disabuse, I present:</p>

<p>In addition, Georgetown is not ranked #23 for nothing. The popular argument is that the SFS accounts for its high ranking, but if anything, it is deleterious to Georgetown because of the preponderance of part-time faculty. Georgetown might not be the best in a lot of disciplines, but we have decent programs that should be considered.</p>

<p>To be sure, they are considered by many applicants; that is, by applicants who look to more than the average SAT and GPA of matriculating students <em>cough</em> <em>cough</em>.</p>
