<p>I'm looking for schools in the D.C. area (or very close) that have good programs in International Relations/Affairs and Poli Sci. Liberal arts schools, preferably.</p>
<p>Georgetown, American, GW are all universities. The only strong lib arts around DC would be William and Mary, but GTown and American are very small U's.</p>
<p>I'm not sure about liberal arts schools, but Johns Hopkins has a good IR program and is located in Baltimore, MD, which is pretty close to DC.</p>
