Diverse and Rewarding GWU

Tips: As an MS in Computer Science student at GWU, newcomers should be prepared for a vibrant, diverse community. Transitioning here involved adapting to a significant cultural shift, enriching my global perspective. I secured a scholarship through academic merit.

Likes (Safety): As an MS in Computer Science from George Washington University, I rated safety a 5 due to the comprehensive measures beyond campus security. Facilities like emergency call stations, safety apps, and escort services contribute to a secure environment. I haven't had any bad experiences in the city, reinforcing my confidence in the university's commitment to student safety.

Dislikes (Internships): I rated 4 for internships because George Washington University offers good support and resources for finding and applying to relevant internships in the Computer Science field, though finding the perfect match requires personal effort and connections.
