<p>I was accepted into the School of Media & Public Affairs as a journalism/mass communications major and while it's a great program and GW's a very good school I don't think it's the kind of place I want to go to for four years.</p>
<p>I applied to a lot of schools, with most of the ones I really want to attend being smaller, more suburban, smaller than GW and with school spirit, which is really important to me. Unfortunately, I did not get into any of those schools, but I was accepted into GW and BU's College of Communications.</p>
<p>I'm not trying to complain or denigrate the schools that did accept me but I'm just not sure I'd be happy there from what I know about them and would like to keep my transfer options open as early as end of next year.</p>
<p>I'm not gonna go into a ton of specifics about where I want to go because obviously so much can change but like a Wake Forest, Boston College, Northwestern sort of place with a good communications program but where kids really love their school.</p>
<p>My high school grades weren't great, I have around a 3.4 and a 32 ACT score. My ECs and other test scores (SAT-IIs) are pretty good and writing is one of my main strengths.</p>
<p>I suppose what I'm asking is, which of those two should I go to where I have a shot at enjoying the school but also the best opportunity to transfer somewhere I think will be a better fit?</p>
<p>Thanks for the help.</p>
