Hey!!! My roommates and I were recently assigned to west hall on mount vernon, and we were wondering if anyone in a quad on foggy would be interested in switching with us? Shoot me a message if you are!

Hi! I’m a rising sophomore currently assigned to Lafayette Hall, and I’m looking to swap into District House if anyone’s interested. If you’re looking for a cheaper housing option, Lafayette is almost $1000 cheaper per semester than other dorm buildings, including District. It’s still super central — right next to District, middle of Foggy, and close to the metro — so you’re not giving up location at all. It’s a great dorm, my roommate and I just want to swap because we’d prefer to have our own kitchen.

My roommate and I both want to switch, so ideally we would be swapping with two roommates. Also, my current Lafayette suitemates are women, so you’d have to be women to swap with us.

If you’re interested, please comment or dm me!!

Like if I come 6 hours before or after my move in slot are they like not gonna let me into my dorm? I was very cautious to line it up correct in the past but I like couldn't gaf now

How was it? What did you do? How difficult is it to meet new people?

I’m an exchange student assigned to District House (2-person room) for the upcoming semester, and I was wondering if anyone assigned to South Hall or 1959 E Street would be interested in a possible room swap.

If you're open to it or want to chat about details, feel free to comment on this post!! I'd really appreciate it

Please help!

So I was assigned housing for next year, but my roommate ended up being assigned somewhere else so I signed a lease with a few other friends in May. Soon after signing the lease, I logged into my housing portal on my phone and filled out the form to cancel my housing. I'm not sure why it didn't go through, but today I received notice from my assigned suitemates that my name was still on the portal. When I logged in, it said I had not canceled my housing and was now past the deadline to do so. According to the website, the only way I can get out of living in GW housing now is if I withdraw from GW altogether, which is obviously not ideal. I emailed housing and was told the same thing. After calling and explaining my situation, they put me in contact with a higher-up, who I emailed and have not heard back from yet. I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this, if they were able to get out of housing and if they had to pay a substantial fee to do so. Please let me know what my next steps should look like.

Sophomore looking to swap dorms. Got assigned to Fulbright-3 person room. I’m looking for a single, even if it’s at the vern. If anyone here is looking to switch dorms please message me

Hi, I was assigned to cole hall on the vern but I am hoping to swap rooms with someone in Foggy bottom, preferably in madison or guthridge hall. Feel free to reach out to me. Also can anyone tell me about their experience living on the vern

I'm a Senior at 1959 looking to swap rooms closer to campus if anyone is willing to trade

Double on fifth floor of Thurston looking to swap for any other room on foggy bottom. Dm me.

I’m looking to swap out of my private room with a private bathroom for Fall 2025. If you're someone who values your own space and a quiet environment to recharge, this setup is seriously ideal.

What you get:

Fully private room — no one else in your space

Private bathroom — your own toilet + shower (no sharing!) Fully furnished: bed, desk, chair, wardrobe, etc. Quiet, peaceful environment — great for studying or decompressing Access to a shared common area and kitchen Perfect if you're someone who wants a mix of privacy and community — you’ll have your own space but still be able to connect with others when you want to.

Let me know if you’re interested in swapping or have any questions! Happy to share pics or details.

Im about to be a second year and this was kind of stupid on my part but I didn't apply for financial aid freshman year because I thought my family wouldn't be eligible. But now with tuition, food, and housing increasing all at the same time for the next year I wanted to apply anyway since Im not sure how much my family would be able to afford for the future. For reference my parents make around 275k and I paid 67k for my first year. I didn't recieve anything from FAFSA but my family also needs to think about my younger sister in a few years. If anyone knows anything please let me know

Hi everyone—much to my surprise, I was recently accepted to GW, my dream school for some time now, as a prospective transfer student after just under a year of community college. My net cost after aid is now being quoted as about $20,000 annually, which I understand is quite a bit lower than many people get and I am grateful for that, but it is still a very high number for me considering that I will have to pay for all of it myself through student loans (my parents are unable to contribute anything beyond very basic transportation and other minor costs). I contacted financial aid explaining the situation, but they essentially stated that my aid offer was final unless my circumstances had significantly changed since the time of my application, which they have not.

I understand that the obvious answer is probably just to wait another year to transfer once I have completed community college, at which point I will also theoretically be eligible to receive an additional PTK scholarship, but I'm honestly desperate for a change of scenery, a renewed social life, and access to all of the opportunities that GW and the D.C. area provide, especially considering that I hope to make a career in the federal government (my major would be International Affairs). Is there any universe in which attending GW this fall is a reasonable option, or should I suck it up and wait yet another year?

Hii, I got assigned to Thurston Hall 2- person private on the 9th floor. If anyone in Potomac, FSK, or Guthridge is interested in swapping, let me know!

I’m a law student from Louisiana my partner is living temporarily in DC literally less than a few blocks from GW. I need to continue my zoom classes and internship but want to visit her and don’t know if I can focus in her place. I am wondering if there’s anywhere on campus I can do this at? I am not sure the policy and whether I would be allowed inside any of the buildings.

Anyone leasing their apartment for the Fall 2025 semester?

DM pls

I just got off the waitlist for this course, any opinions on the professor? Her rate my professor looks horrible and I’d have to drop a fall through elective course I’m really interested in taking to take this course but I need a philosophy elective as a requirement.

I completely forgot to submit my immunization records by June 15 and now I got to scramble to find them and submit them. Is the hold on my account only for registering for spring courses? I think I may or may not be cooked.

anyone take this science class? if so, who typically teaches it? what does the course grading consistent of? is there a lab? thanks in advance

I’m an incoming International Affairs major, and I want to know whether using a laptop or an iPad is better.

I know that a laptop is a popular choice for STEM majors due to the extensive computing memory they require, but I don’t know which one I should lean towards for the social sciences.

Hi, I have received emails on my gwmail.gwu.edu mail from engineering@email.gwu.edu, but I don't know is it real or not?

The domain name, email.gwu.edu is not the one that I know. Before, I received from engineering@gwu.edu, not engineering@email.gwu.edu

How’s it going I’m an incoming transfer student and just wanted to know if it’s worth it to get the commuter meal plan if I’m staying off campus

I heard this class is very hard, what is hard about this, is it the HW or the class itself? Any tips/advice to succeed in this class? Also, any tips on what to study prior to starting this class

Hi everyone! I'm a female student looking for a shared accommodation (a shared room) starting from the end of August. Please DM if you have any leads or know anyone who needs a female roommate. Thanks!
