from a person who grew up in Fairfax from pre-k to senior year, there are things to do in Fairfax you just have to know what you are looking for. second, if you like the city feel but dont like being in traffic all the time fairfax is good because its usually just a 30 min metro ride into DC if you want to go to museums or art exhibits or clubs, so in my opinion its better that way since you dont get all of the congestion from people trying to go to the museums and instead just get the city vibe. (also the metro is pretty safe you just have to be vigalent and avoid the people who look like bad news

@@amarat8058 I like the honors college because the gen ed courses we have differ from the greater Mason University. They have smaller class sizes, and then there are reserved sections of some courses specifically for Honors Students. We also get priority registration, so chances are the schedule you want will be the schedule you get, except for some honors classes which are really popular so they fill up fast. If you really enjoy research, there are endless opportunities for that in the Honors College as well. Just a great feature of GMU overall!

Hey, I'm a student at GMU who is going to study abroad for the Fall semester 2020! Many aspects of the study abroad destinations depend on what program you are applying to and where you are going. I am going to the Mason Korea, the university based in Songdo, Korea. Classes are taught in English, so I don't need to learn Korean (but it absolutly helps to know the language you are going to for convenience). Some other locations are not taught in English (like some study aborads to Spain, which are only taught in Spanish).

Hi, I worked in the study abroad office at GMU officially called the GEO office. I suggest going to the study abroad website at masonabroad.gmu.edu to check out the different programs. On the online brochures you can see what language the programs are offered in and the majors that are offered there. The only thing is since the pandemic the summer programs were cancelled this year. Going forward I'm not sure if the office will go forward with fall and spring 2021 programs. I suggest calling the office to ask more detailed questions or sending them an email. Also, there are many scholarships you can apply to on the website when you start your application. I studied abroad in South Korea at Mason Korea for 2 semesters and Galway Ireland for a summer and the grant money I received covered a lot of expenses.

Mason was horrible in my opinion. Luckily I was over 21 and had a car when I transferred. 1 the campus literally dies during the breaks so kids who stay on campus has no access anything like food or activities. 2 they put no effort into the social events. 3 the kids in NOVA are out of touch with reality (snobby rich kids) . 4 it is literally a go to class and leave enviroment 5 Mason police harass you for anything 6 the quality of education is just not there if it isn’t engineering or CS
