Thank you for the input. I just got back from my second visit at GW and it was a mixed. The program offers great industry exposure and international experiences but the RE director would not give me a salary range for students. I found 6% of the 2016 class report with a low of $52k and high of $68k. These are very low but a 1st yr student gave me a $70- $100k range. Additionally, I don't really like DC but nearby Arlington is a better city. I would remain in either area for at least a few years after school bc any RE company hiring would be regional at these schools.

My decision comes down to this: GW has better learning experiences for RE but TCU offers a better culture, city, average salary, and much easier to start a RE business in a few years. Any thoughts are welcomed.

I appreciate the input and I have decided to attend TCU. I will be happier in the program and DFW and I will create the opportunities to get me to where I want to go.

I personally respect your choice, which is not based on ranking. Your decision is based on 'fit'.

Congrats and wish you success in your journey. :)
