<p>what do you guys think? im going into international relations...</p>
<p>GW is one of only a handful of university that has a seperate school for international affairs offered at the undergrad level. We're one that's closest to the State Department. I don't know too much about BC, but I do know a lot of about GW. </p>
<p>Studying international affairs in Washington is probably the best place to do it. The resources of DC are available to you as a GW undergrad. 1. amazing profs that bring the real world into the classroom from their own personal experiences. Learn about conflict mediation from Ambassador Shinn, former US Ambassador to Ethiopia. 2. Internships, internships, internships. Living in Washington makes it easy to intern. 92% of students graduate with at least one internship, part-time job or work experience. The internship program at GW is not regimented and structure - this allows students to find internships that match their interest, schedule and needs. Intern at the White House, State Department, Red Cross, CSIS, and other government agencies and NGOs in the area. 3. Study abroad. GW has 3 GW-run programs, but offers a multitude of affiliate programs so students to go as far as Japan, Ghana or Australia or as close as Costa Rica and Brazil. Go anywhere. Study anything.</p>
