George Washington University
Washington, DC
As they say in real estate, "Location, location, location." Same holds for GW. Being in the nation's capital only strengthens the opportunities for the 8,700 undergrads. Internships abound and students benefit from strong programs in political science, international affairs, and political communication. The new Media and Public Affairs Center hosts the CNN political broadcast "Crossfire". GW also has the less urban Mount Vernon campus 10 minutes away.
