Big Picture
It's the non-Ivy Ivy school. Off-campus housing is expensive. MSB grads have the 2nd highest starting salaries of b-school undergrads.
Academic Life
Professors do make an effort to learn everyone's name, even in my Philosophy lecture of 75. Students work hard and play hard. Certain majors focus on getting a job, others on learning for learning's sake.
Student Body
Honestly, students from lower income families might tend to feel a bit out of place here. It seems everyone I meet is studying a foreign language (or three) or is fluent in one or more languages. Lunch tables: Athletes, Academics, Future Trophy Wives, Future Presidents (and husbands of trophy wives). Someone told me at Orientation, "80% of Hoyas marry another Hoya, and 50% of students believe everything they hear at Orientation."
The Best Things
Saying you go to Georgetown and people being jealous.
The Worst Things
Scheduling, sometimes
