As the U.S. capital, Washington, DC, (or just “DC”) has a global feel that welcomes everyone.

Cool places to study and sightsee? You’ll find it all in DC.
In just one day, you could work on a group project in a trendy café, walk by the White House, eat dinner in Chinatown, and then go to a professional baseball game.
DC is all about American and international politics. With the federal government, many embassies, and global non-profit organizations all located here, there are many opportunities to learn and get involved.
