Really good interview. The guy said that I was a great "fit."
February 26 2010
Only one of two or three schools i truely regret not applying to, the non common app thing did me in, but i wish i wasnt so god damn lazy. My odds wouldnt be good at all, but i really like the DC area, one of my fav spots in america and going to college there would be sick.
February 20 2010
High Range. Interested but I'd go to most other places on the list before going here. SFS is awesome. Deferred. Boo! Wasn't expecting to get in early.
February 10 2010
Extremely strong interview - alumnus said she would write a very good evaluation for me.
February 2 2010

Dad went for Med school
December 7 2009
Never was really interested until Governor's School. One advisor their is a senior in their SFS program. Really interests me. Plus, I'd be in D.C., so I could continue to work for Congressman Lance and keep up those political connections, haha. Important to note: Georgetown hates my school. I have no idea why. Last year, one girl was accepted to Harvard and Princeton... but rejected to Georgetown. Take that into consideration... haha.

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.

favorite...deferred EA...still hoping
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!
