They show you the newest dorms and tell you that your kids gonna be in them, but they'll end up in the oldest.. 2. The school will tell you how safe their campus is with hundreds of cameras everywhere keeping them safe and protected. But when your daughter gets assaulted in the quad suddenly there's no footage of the assault and the star athlete that attacked her has zero consequences and the police reports disappear and they try to make it all go away and pretend that it didn't happen. this all happened years ago, but my daughter still has physical and mental trauma, including severe migraine. It'll probably last her the rest of her life and the university could care less the way we were treated was disgusting. we are reminded every day of the injustice that occurred on this campus when we see our daughter in pain almost a decade later. stay away from this corrupt institution

This campus is cleaner, nicer. But it is smaller, and is often quiet and deserted on weekends. The library is usually empty on weekends. It's a good place to study. There's no public parking.. only temporary parking.. if you're gonna be there more than 1 or 2 hours.. you have to pay.

Okay, so maybe the nerd density of this building reads off the charts, but it's a great place to…read morelive if you are part of a Cornell program in Washington. 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 2 bed studios in this place are really nice (air conditioning, LARGE walk-in closets!, 5 drawer…read moredressers, personal bathrooms with a full-sized shower, and clean carpets and walls--definitely a substantial improvement from living in grungy off-campus apartments in Ithaca). 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!

Limitations to onsite learning: Due to my changing work schedule at the time, attending classes this way was impossible. The remedy? Online classes. Motivation: If the cost of tuition/books don't inspire you to learn/maintain good grades, I don't know what will. Learning keeps you young: Whether you're 21 or 81 and want to take classes, you should give Strayer University some serious thought.
