Nine officials in the Obama administration hold graduate degrees from GW — the fifth-most out of any graduate program worldwide.

GW tied with Columbia University for the No. 5 slot, just behind neighboring Georgetown University, for the number of alumni in Obama’s inner circle.

Harvard University topped both the undergraduate and graduate list with 23 and 38 alumni, respectively. GW did not make the list of the top undergraduate schools.

Out of 250 officials surveyed by the National Journal, 40 percent of officials boast degrees from Ivy League schools, compared to 25 percent graduating from public universities.

Northeasterners dominate Obama’s administration, making up more than one-third of the president’s second-term officials. Only 18 percent grew up in a state that voted for Governor Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election.

Officials from Texas, the nation’s second-most populous state, make up less than 2 percent of the president’s administration with four officials, while New York came in as the top state with 40.
