Student Organizations
Commercial Real Estate Network (CREN)
CREN is GW's undergraduate student organization created specifically for students interested in the real estate industry. CREN members can participate in events such as resume workshops, professional development opportunities, panels with successful alumni and industry professionals, on-site tours of real estate developments in the DMV area, and many more opportunities.
Real Estate & Finance Alliance (REFA) Mentorship Program
REFA is an excellent opportunity for GW undergrads. If selected, you will receive advice and guidance from REFA upperclassmen on interview prep, networking, professional development, and much more. This is a competitive and highly valued program, and you are strongly encouraged to apply. Applications open in early fall semester for undergraduate sophomores only.
"GW's real estate program provided countless opportunities to learn from world-class professors and real-world professionals within the CRE industry. The classes available through the real estate program challenged and expanded my knowledge to help prepare my peers and myself for real-world situations and career development. GWU's commercial real estate network was exceedingly valuable to my experience as a student and within the early stages of my career. I am beyond grateful to all the professors, advisors, mentors, and fellow students for the opportunity to grow throughout the RE program and land a job at a top commercial real estate company. GWU's real estate program nourishes students inside and outside the classroom and continues to supplement growth opportunities far after graduation."
