Georgetown University Top Questions

What do you consider the worst thing about Georgetown University? Why?

Alexandra

Internet connection. Up until this year, it was impossible to get internet in the library.

Hilary

don't know

Logan

how wealthy the students are

Jacqueline

Conversations relating to course material don't often continue outside the classroom.

Heather

Housing. The housing system is terrible--the office is not helpful. Students are expected to choose roommates for the next school year half way through the fall semester, which doesn't give new students enough time to meet people. Also, the dorms and apartments are generally small, cramped, and often have big problems. When students call about problems, like a heater that isn't working, it can take days for facilities to fix it. There isn't enough on-campus housing for all of the students, which is also a big problem!

Heather

The unflexible meal plan that is required for 4 semesters, and the limited dining options (one dining hall) which makes using the meal plan annoying and the meals themselves boring and repetitive.

Christina

I guess the worst thing would be the expensiveness of everything in the surrounding area

Lindsay

How little money they have. They are very stingy when you go to school here, so once people graduate they are not likely to give back because they remember how little they got. It is a terrible cycle.

Dhakshila

It's very, very expensive, and financial aid isn't given to everyone who wants it.

Kenneth

We have a very diverse campus people from all over the world but we still form groups based on race/ethnicity which makes it feel as if the campus is not really diverse.
