Reach. New 1st Choice. Interviewer was young, HOT!, talkative; ~ 2 hr. Bad things: wrote on pre-app I would do EA, but I'm not, and I didn't send my awards info! Actively pursuing getting off waitlist, but future so uncertain. YES! I'm going!
May 2 2009
I wish Georgetown was better for business because it was an awesome place, yet I can't justify spending 200k on the 26th best business school in the US if I can go to the 5th best recruiting IB school in the WORLD for the same cost.

Being a political aficionado, Georgetown was definitely one of the top schools on my list. It was just behind Penn/Duke/NYU. I hope to go here for law school
April 27 2008
One of the most political schools out there, right in DC. As for the other schools I applied to, I really like Georgetown
February 27 2008
Good school. Overly urban. Near home (45 min away by train). I planned on applying for the name and my connections in the music dept.

December 29 2006
Accepted EA
December 29 2006
Would love to go here. My stretch school and highly unlikely, but you can't blame one for trying, can you?...at least that's what i thought. imagine my surprise when i was accepted early action, but the news did make my holidays!
December 16 2006
I AM what Georgetown is looking for, and I want them. I want to go into politics or law or international relations and what better place to pursue those goals than the nation's capital? Besides, nothing can beat the shopping there!
