COLLEGE CHOICE----HELP
New York University or Georgetown
the thing is though, i've lived in Washington D.C. for all 18 years of my life. Georgetown is actually closer to my house than my high school is.

Re: COLLEGE CHOICE----HELP
Comparable schools, so it comes down to straight personal choice: Do you want to get away from the house, or stay close by? I wanted to get far away, and I was happy in the end that I did.

I'd go NYU to have a "real" college experience. [/ QUOTE ] actually I was talking to Evan about this awhile back and we both agreed that NYC is not a place to get the typical college experience, especially NYU. whereas a lot of colleges tend to define the town they're in, NYU is just a dot in one of the biggest, busiest cities in the world. there's no football team and the village, though hip, is not collegey. if you choose NYU expect to "grow up" pretty quickly in terms of social activities and blow through a ton of money. that said, NYC is an awesome place to be.

[/ QUOTE ] Yea, if you asked me to pick one phrase that did NOT describe NYU it would be "real college experience". Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is entirely up to you, but what you'll get here is very very far away from what 99.9% of people would call a college experience. There's positives to that and there's negatives. I'm not going to write about all of them now, but trust me that it's very different. As I write this, if I look over my left shoulder my entire window is filled by the 15th tallest building in the country. If I go into my living room I see the Brooklyn Bridge. If I were to go onto the roof I'd see the 2nd and 5th tallest buildings in the country. It's easy to get lost in the crowd here and that alone makes it way way different than pretty much any other university in the world.

Re: COLLEGE CHOICE----HELP
I don't know much about NYU, but I lived in New York for 2 years and absolutely hated it. It's like everyone in that state is a dick head, I will never go back there. College there could be totally different though idk.

Re: COLLEGE CHOICE----HELP
When I opened the OP and saw the poll Georgetown was my immediate preference. I really like DC.
But the fact that you are from DC and live that close to GTown makes it NYU and its not really close.
