在考过托福和SAT后，许多学生会对于报考哪所学校产生的顾虑。下面新航道济南托福培训学校的小编将用一系列的文章来介绍一下美国和加拿大的，让学生在选择学校时有所参照。

    霍华德大学简介

    霍华德大学(Howard University)成立于1867年，是一所综合类的私立大学，为全美的黑人大学，有86%的黑人学生。大学以心理学、政治和化学。其他较佳的学科，有会计、商科管理、工程、社会工作、动物学和大众传播。前一两年共有5,660人投考，录取率为41%。

    地理位置

    大学位于美国首都华盛顿特区，华盛顿特区通常称为华府，以避免和位于太平洋岸同名的华盛顿州混淆。华府占地67英哩，坐西朝东。阿帕拉契山为背，波多马克河为水，子午主轴是以北边的白宫和南端的华盛顿纪念碑，东西向主轴为东边的国会大厦和西边的林肯纪念堂。这种格局是很严密的中国宫廷式的格局。

    华府这个城市是按照美国首任总统华盛顿的理念建立的，而且是根据法国建筑工程技师殷范提设计规划的。华府市街恰似棋盘方格，区划井然有序，既没有耸入云霄的高楼大厦，也没有炫耀入目的霓虹灯，街道建筑大多平实，并以格子状辐射开来，很像中国几个的古都。在这个艺术文化气息浓厚的城市中，只要留心观察，就能察觉到在美国其它大教会中不易看到的中国精髓与东方神韵。

    华府广阔平稳，有为数众多的国家公园，处处绿意盎然。很多居民都住公寓，因此这个城市既不必向高空发展，又不至于蔓延到东面的海边，人口中的一大部分，都生活在舒服的环境中，所以在华府看不到无目标地忙碌、行色匆匆的路人，这里的人忙碌而有方向。

    华府最值得参观的有史密松宁博物馆、白宫及国会的内部。
