Historic campus right adjacent to the seats of power. Tree-lined streets and compact campus setting. Evenings bring out some rats, but otherwise a fine visit.

I went to Georgetown Hospital. Overall it was a good experience. I was there for 3 days. I had two nurses that wasn't very good. I would recommend this Hospital.

Unnecessarily too much homework and makes tests harder than necessary.
