Thanks Flyers1, that's helpful. I'm attending the admitted student days at both AU and GWU over the next two days and I'm hoping to learn more about what distinguishes the programs from one another. I'm leaning toward nonprofit management, but I'm also interested in international development.
I agree that it seems like both schools are quite good, but I've heard that GWU has a better reputation than AU. Do you have any sense if that's fair? Reputation certainly isn't my only criteria for picking a program, but I am curious if the perception in DC of the two programs is very different.
