Although it may be without typical dorm room hjinks, the Wolpe Center provides Cornell students with a sense of community in Washington DC, where deeps bonds are fostered and intellectual evolution is cultivated. Sometimes when I think back to the room size, I can't believe I lived comfortably with a roommate. Don't get me wrong. As far as dorm rooms are concerned, they are pretty nice. Each room has a private full bath, small kitchen and bunked beds. There are also some common areas that residents can go to study with a plethora of cafes and restaurants nearby to seek additional refuge if need be. I always felt as though the building was fairly secure and everyone knows one another because you're part of the same, small program. Additionally, it can't get much better then rolling out of bed to head downstairs for a three hour lecture. I also remember that all of the staff, mentors and professors were truly engaged, approachable and down-to-earth, which was extremely helpful as we embarked on a major research project throughout the semester. Additionally, the Wolpe Center also doubles as the site of the Cornell Club of Washington. While I'm not terribly involved, I have volunteered in the past with CAAN (Cornell Alumni Admission Network) to help meet and interview local candidate that are currently going through the application process. I remember when I was applying, it was really nice to meet with a local person to get a sense of their experiences. Overall, the Cornell Center and community in Washington DC is extremely warm and professional. If you're ever searching for Cornell resources in Washington, this would be the place to go.

The rooms are very clean and didn't set off my allergies, which is a major plus for me. The neighborhood is really nice, plenty of restaurants and cafes around--I'd recommend checking out the reviews online beforehand to avoid disappointment. Definitely a nice/safe business area of D.C. The triples in this place are nice as well. I only saw one but it had a pretty big living room and bigger kitchen with a full sized oven. Only down-side is that three beds (a bunk bed and a single bed) are squeezed into a fairly small room. Looks somewhat uncomfortable. The studios also have regular twin bunk beds( I believe you can request an extra long twin if you need it), which are all detachable if you don't want to climb up to the top bunk. Overall the rooms are pretty spacious and nice. Very happy with my experience at the center. I'd definitely recommend the Cornell in Washington Program!

This review of the takoma parking campus is based on my experience while I was there from 2016-2018 and not anywhere if any new update to the campus. When comparing the 3 Montgomery College campuses the takoma park campus is the most outdated and old. On one side of the campus you got old building for all the majors and on the other side you have a newer building for all the health science majors. There is a pedestrian bridge that connect the two side together and below is a metro rail. The campus has vending machine and a computer lab where you can go to do work on the computer. There is garage parking on both side of the campus and sometime there is crime of breaking into car and stealing valuable if you leave them in your car. My car got scratches when I parked in the garage. The teachers I had for my anatomy class & sociology were very good when I took them at this campus. All in all, unless you are majoring in the health science majors or looking for a specific professor for your class then I wouldn't recommend coming to this campus compare to the other 2 MC locations.

Amazing University…read more The grounds are beautiful with lots of open space. Buildings must be 150 plus year old and revamped on the inside. It's amazing when places in the US keep old buildings like they do in much of the rest of the world instead of ripping them down and rebuilding. Interesting face ... there is a graveyard on site in the school. There is a sign that says, lifelong supporters. I have not spent a lot of time here but it's amazing to walk and run through with lots of history to check out. I think this is a law-only school.

What an amazing & diverse campus…read more Not only as a parent, yet as a visitor/tourist, does this campus offer so much history, enjoyable experiences & a beautiful scenery. Commonly known as 'BU or Boston U', it's main campus is part of 2 urban campuses collectively. BU is positioned along the Charles River, overlapping in the Fenway, Kenmore & Allston communities. After Ubering to breakfast, I decided to walk back to my WomanBaby's dorm. I found myself on the populated Charles River Bike Path & got to see Harvard & MIT along the way. It's a 23 mile paved stretch with the bridges serving as mileage trackers. A few tidbits; Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. & Andy Cohen attended BU, one of Boston's largest employers, has their own Medical Campus located in Boston's South End neighborhood, shout out to DC-BU has internship, journalism and management programs housed on Massachusetts Avenue in Dupont Circle, Men's Hockey is very popular as 5-Time National Champs & how fitting that BU's mascot is a Terrier, amusing. I wanted to take a peak to where my WomanBaby would be getting schooled this Fall in Public Health. The Talbot Building looks like a medieval mini mansion with a perfectly manicured landscape that is located on BU's Medical Campus. There is so much that BU offers, not only as a top ranked educational institution, yet an amazing social melting pot for their students. Footsteps from the educational & housing buildings offers a mass of diverse exposure & encounters connected with the historic New England charm. The never ending of restaurants, arts & entertainment, sports, shopping both upscale/outlet malls, trolley/subway rides & the extensive nightlight...simply casually exhilarating. I look forward to my many returns to BU & it's city.

The tour was great, she answered our questions and kept us engaged. The admissions counselor gave us important info for the application process and was friendly. The buildings are very old and definitely need some renovation. The door rooms have the beds directly next to one another which I found odd and uncomfortable. Because the desk are fixed to the walls, there isn't any room for moving furniture around. The dining hall appeared to be from the early 1900's, from the tables to the light fixtures. I understand it's an older school, but most universities are old. If they are going go take money, some of it needs to be reallocated to fixing the school. The lobby of the dorm was like something out of a horror film. The only weird thing here was the security officer... when we walked in, I told him I and my two mentees were there for a tour. He stared at us and said " do you know where to go," I told him no and asked if he could point us to the admissions office, which he did. As we were walking away he asked "all yall here for a tour?" and I said "yes"... he continued to stare.. didn't say anything else and just looked away. It seemed like he had some sort of delayed reaction. As we left the tour, he looked at us and asked "are yall done with the tour".. we confirmed and he just continued to stare at us oddly. It was almost like he had never heard of a tour before. Our guide was great, but I didn't get an awesome first impression, but I want to leave the choice to my mentee with the time comes.

They treat you with much attention when applying but once you start attending they do not care about you anymore. Thank God I comminuted because I cannot imagine leaving here, but I keep running into problems anyways because there is only 3 small parking lots in this place and if you are trying to make it to class on time forget about it because the parking lot right next to the buildings is always packed free 9:30. Then you have to park all the way in the back which sometimes fills up as well! Then you have to park at the furthest ONE which also fills up as well so where tf am I supposed to park? Yet they got like 4 tennis courts that can easily become more parking or just make a garage like hello?! I also heard someone in the dorms had their TV AND CLOTHES STOLEN while they were out of town because the locks on the dorm doors can literally be opened with a credit card. So what I have heard when students tell me they get locked out. Some but not all professors are not professional don't go to this school they curse and say the f word all the time. Security don't even pay attention who walks in and out this building fr, the school also look nice on the outside but the main hall is needs to be renevated period . I really don't care if you are trying to keep up with the 1900's look the floors are creaking, it's hot asf in there. Please don't come to its school the only parks is that they give you a lot of FA so if you can make a sacrifice to for that then be my guest.
