<p>Ok, I'm more of a Notre Dame fan/ND is my dream school, but I'm not trying to knock Georgetown, I may want to go there. I'm interested in majoring in IR/PoliSci, and I know GTown is one of the best, if not the best school for that. But now I'm thinking more about business school, but I can always get an MBA later somewhere. </p>
<p>Ok, so besides location, what makes GTown SFS so good? What separates it from the rest of the pack? I honestly don't know too much about it. </p>
<p>Though, I may not have to make this choice, both Notre Dame and GTown are slight reaches for me, but who knows. </p>
<p>NYU has an meh curriculum, meh admission rates and rather underwhelming scores. From my first-hand vantage point, the faculty are A-holes and completely disrespectful of the students (not even gonna bother with illustrative examples which might be edited out anyway). They are ranked superior for business school. Why? Wallstreet in backyard.</p>
<p>SFS? Because White House is in backyard/Congress is in backyard/ Supreme Court is in backyard.</p>
<p>instead of having one major called International Relations, SFS has multiple majors offering different angles on IR, something most schools don't have. </p>
<p>You've got:</p>
<p>Culture and Politics
International Economics
International History
International Political Economy
Regional and Comparative Studies
Science, Technology and International Affairs</p>
<p>Most of the above majors have concentrations within them.</p>
<p>You've also got certificates from SFS, including:</p>
<p>African Studies
Asian Studies
Arab Studies
Australian and New Zealand Studies
International Business Diplomacy
International Development
Justice and Peace Studies</p>
<p>I'd say that no other school has as many undergraduate options in International Relations than Georgetown. Outside of SFS we've also go International Business in the MSB and International Health in NHS.</p>
<p>Yea madeline albright is a professor, as is the former president of Poland prime minister of Portugal some high ranking EU guys among many others. Youre not gonna get much better than that. I selected political economy as my prospective major. Literally no other schools offer that (I want to do a mix of poli sci and eco so its perfect). Also location in DC helps a huge amount for internships. Those are some of the things that I think sets sfs apart.</p>
<p>I'm leaning more towards Finance, want to work on Wall Street, But it would be really hard to double major in business and IR at GU and ND, I'm assuming. But, in all honesty, if I'm accepted to both GU and ND, I'll probably pick ND, but that is only because it has been my dream school since I was like 6.</p>
<p>good luck! it is really good that you have a clear idea of where you'd choose to go. I personally am suffering from not knowing whether to choose Gtown or ND.</p>
<p>Senator Chuck Hagel just joined SFS faculty as Distinguished Professor in the Practice of National Governance. he'll teach undergrad and grad courses in US foreign policy.</p>
