Is your university private or public? If private, get the fuck out and go somewhere else.
Georgetown is good for IR though, and it's in your area
It's private, and I applied to Georgetown (still will try to apply this next semester) and got rejected. Still have to send a polite email asking as to what I can do to improve but that's neither here nor there. Figure I basically just need to raise my GPA by a helluva lot (currently basically a 3.1). I'm not opposed to Georgetown for a Masters or PhD... just don't really feel like DC/NoVA meshes with me very well right now :/. I'm gonna try going to metal concerts in Silver Springs though a couple times and see how those go, but the general consensus in my mind is DC is great... if you're at one of the Big Three, in your mid 20's, or rich/well connected. I'm 0/3. Don't get me wrong I'd be happy to work there I just feel like E.Europe/Germany is sorta where I feel most drawn to right now.
