<p>If my chances are low for JMU, anyone have any other ideas of other schools that offer International Relations/PolySci/Homeland-National Security on the Atlantic coast or great lakes-ish? I'd kinda like it to be a big school, not just in numbers but campus size.</p>

<p>JMU ended up giving me a B+ on a presentation for GIS I had to give infront of Dr. Kolvoord and another professor whom I cant remember the name of…</p>
<p>I also go to school in Loudoun County…which apparently has a good public education system…</p>
<p>My two letters of rec are also coming from JMU graduates. One the principal of my old middle school who’s seen both me and my brother, so i’ve known him for abit, and another from my GIS teacher.</p>
