Hi, I am not so sure about BU, but as a GW Global Health MPH alum, I really enjoyed it and can't say enough positive things about it. I think one of the most important things to consider with grad schools, especially global health, is the wealth of opportunities for students while they are completing their degree and after. GW offers a lot of internships and fellowships with really prestigious international organizations.. I got fully funded scholarship to do my practicum at the World Food Programme in Rome. I don't know of TOO Many other schools that have links like this (and more, fellow students did practicums with a wide range of NGOs/UNs/US governments all over the world). 

Many someone else wants to weigh in and maybe i'm too late in posting my answer, but I say GW for sure. In DC alone you have access to so much!
