Schools: Emory University vs Georgetown
Intended major: Business--Consulting/International Business
Similarities: Cost, location (both in cities even tho different ones)

Name of School 1
School 1 Pros:
-Close to family
-Has specific consulting
-Nice campus
-Good weather
-More Black than georgetown (I'm Black, the difference is only 3%)

School 1 Cons:
-REALLY close to home
-Doesn't have International Business as a major
-The students seem really depressed
-I've lived in Atl my whole life, I'm bored

Georgetown University
School 2 Pros:
-In DC
-Far from home
-GREAT for International Business
-I'm interested in Politics too so perfect for that
-Students seem happier
-Beautiful campus

School 2 Cons:
-Far from home
-Haven't visited
-Dorms and food are not great from what I've heard
-Some students are snobby
-3% less Black (but Howard is around so)

I'm already pretty sure I know where I want to go, but I need objective opinions. I really feel like getting away from home might be super positive for me, but I also have grandparents and two younger sisters whom I'd miss/worry about. What should I do?

does georgetown have better placements for consulting?

#

also think about the mental health situation at each school, that's most important
