Ok so I’m a Georgetown student and I will answer LITERALLY any question with absolute and brutal honesty about straight up any part of the campus, its culture, parties, academics, etc.
Go for it
How bad are the rats and mice on campus and in buildings? Thanks.
The place is lousy with them but like they are chillers. There’s an entire campus culture surrounding rats and rat related obsession.
And yes they can fly.
Not sure I find that comforting, lol.
This is our question too! Seriously, are rats/ mice spotted in dorm rooms?? Seems unsanitary and I don’t know how my kid would handle seeing one in her actual room. I need specifics 
From what I have read in The Hoya articles and from other people’s postings, here is what I envision. Mice are in most dorms, they are seen, and the student deal with them on their own with traps, etc. Rats are seen scurrying around campus, especially at night on campus grounds. The rats are also seen in buildings on occasion (I have read about sightings in the cafeteria and in a dorm lobby.) Is this assessment objective and accurate or am I off base? Thanks for your frankness.
@Winky1 Mice problems are worse in apartments compared to residence halls, and facilities does a pretty good job of fumigating before the school year starts/during winter break, but I do know people, especially those living in apartments, who have had to deal with mice problems on their own. You describe the rat presence pretty well–they’re around at night and sometimes in buildings but not too often, I don’t think
Thank you, @masquerade98 . Are mice not in dorms often? Or they are in dorms often, just worse in apts.?
Academic wise, what are the class sizes like in the College? Is it mostly large lectures or are there a good number of smaller classes as well?
@Winky1 I live in Darnall, which has a bad reputation because it’s really old and farther away from everything else, but I haven’t seen any mice in our dorm. I have heard isolated cases, but most of the people I know who have said they’ve had to deal with mice are in apartments. Honestly, if you clean up after yourself and your room isn’t a mess, the vermin tend to leave you alone–they’ve got much more lucrative targets elsewhere.
Piggybacking off of @somewhere2022 's post above, are the classes in NHS around 30 students max? I am imagining this as a very small and intimate college within the university. Would be a miracle to get in!
I guess @Tonymaccaroni isn’t coming back!
