<p>D is trying to decide between UMW and Mason...and potentially Gettysburg. UMW has a Discovery Day in April for her to go and visit the campus again...and GBerg has something similar for accepted students...but Mason seems to have very little to offer in terms of "marketing" for accepted students.</p>

<p>GBerg seems unlikely since the financial aid that they offered still makes it more than twice as expensive as either Mason or UMW...so it's probably coming down to a choice between UMW and Mason.</p>

<p>They are obviously very different schools. Anyone else actually struggling with a similar decision?</p>

<p>George Mason :slight_smile: it is in a nice location full of really good internships and job opportunities. Besides, it’s an up-and-coming school, getting better each year!</p>

<p>My daughter was accepted and attended Gettysburg. It was her first choice. She transferred after one semester to Mason and loves it. She hated Gettysburg. I hope this helps your daughter make her decision. Gettysburg was just too much of a party school - frat life is pretty much all there is to do there.</p>
