Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Rochester

<p>Interested in attending a top law school.
Rochester is smaller and has a top 10 poli sci dept.
Rochester may have an edge in academics overall.
After visiting I observed a more serious higher academic atmosphere at Rochester although the GWU Honors program is excellent.
GWU has plenty of internship opportunities and is in a great location.
Rochester has solid opportunties too but they are somewhat different.</p>

<p>I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and interview at Rochester.
GWU seemed less personal and a bit more bureaucratic.
Assuming I had the same GPA and LSAT at either school which would better prepare me for entrance to law school?</p>

<p>I am looking for a challenging school with prof interaction as well as numerous social activities.</p>

<p>Any comments?</p>

<p>I am a split polisci major and the professors are amazing... They know how to teach their subjects. We also have plenty of opportunities for internships, etc. so don't be worried about that. And yes, UR has much better overall academics than GWU and UR also has no cirriculum :)</p>
