https://open.spotify.com/track/0L9gTfejjxwfZgqVWacqoJ?si=fd3a06c579864b6d Listen to the fight song to manifest an acceptance
I wrote my special skills essay about making capuccinos and I feel like a moron in retrospect
I don't know
AAH
thats actually rly cute
McDonough is such a good b school PLS LET ME IN
plus you don't have to reapply at mcdonough like uva and unc
SEE U ON CAMPUS!!!!
mcdonough act was 30-34 back in 2020 so assuming it hasn't gone up much i'm right in the middle superscore
https://open.spotify.com/track/7CepW86j1IzaT6QllX69Ih?si=0d98a020c4124c5b fuzzy noise makes me feel better
I need to stop looking at the gtown website
My college counselor told me to leave mine blank but I thought that was odd and I decided to do it without telling them. Is it common for people not to do that section?
My counselor never told me to or not to do that essay but I did
generally she tells us to do everything that is available
I'd guess 13th
i have absolutely no idea why they’d tell you to leave it blank
it’s a required essay just like the other three
good on you for filling it out
says 15th on portal
Yeah but they've come out earlier last 2 years
really? how far in advance do they tell you when it will be released or is it spontaneous
someone on here said they email you two hours beforehand
which is scary as fucklmfao
I'm stressing abt it so much
same
At first I didn't care abt gtown as much but now I've fallen more in love with it
i have at best a 50/50 shot so I should be ready for disappointment
have you visited? it’s literally insane
like it’s so perfect imo, the size is just 🫶🏼
student pop size is great
yuppp
but campus is rlly small
I never went to gtown but I swung by duke when I was at unc just to look at it and the campus is so beautiful
nature of the city though
small enough to get attention and resources but large enough to constantly be meeting new people
yeah just dc metro honestly
at least i've gotten into two schools so far but i just want to go to gtown
"The university admitted 881 students from a total of 8,832 applicants for an early action acceptance rate of 10%, according to Dean of Undergraduate Admissions Charles Deacon (CAS ’64, GRD ’69). The number of applications increased by 1.4% from last year, while the acceptance rate dropped by .79%"
last year^
oh joy
were they still test optional last year?
yes i think so
not as far as ik but for the last one before that they were
last year if you couldnt produce scores they requred an explanation as to why
so i dont thinmk that constitutes as being optional
yeah
I just hope applicant pool doesn't increase over last year or i've got an even worse chance
semi-optional
definitely will

every year more and more people applying to college and same amount of spots
it is what it is
if the upward trend is due to people having higher gpas bc of covid (like they ||cheated|| or are better at learning independently) it might have decreased
since most schools are back to irl
news talks about mean act scores dropping but selective schools' acceptance rates going down
such a strange convergence of seemingly opposite phenomena
hmm? that makes sense to me wdym
if scores drop
accept
OH
YEAHHH that makes sense
people have just gotten better at "gaming" the admissions system ig
i think thats just my growing inferiority complex speaking idk
the whole admissions process makes me feel vastly inferior but it is what it is
are you guys sfs fans
I applied to mcdonough
it was a major tossup for me
either sfs or government in the college
i landed on the college for a few reasons
- the most shallow is that i felt i could better navigate the essay prompt
- i dont see IR in my future
- i felt i had a better chance at the collehe
trying to break into mbb consulting / ib and mcdonough places well in both
im chasing the $$$
fair enough
@spiral gull transfer to mcdonough instead lol
wby
im tryin for business plus global affairs in sfs
so i get $ and ir
I'm not sure how easy it is to transfer, but if you get in to mcdonough you don't have to reapply like you do at UVA Commerce or UNC Kenan-Flagler
yeah
one more reason i'm anxious abt gtown
yupp have heard of this
yeah direct admit which is rlly great
girl in the class above mine got into the msb so i learned a lot from her
you leave business easily but not transfer into it easily so good choice
can leave*
a few people in my school's previous senior class applied to georgetown (i'd guess sfs for most) and not a single one got in
oh damn
wow
georgetown has historically gotten one person from my school (classes of ‘19, ‘20, and ‘22)
at least i think thise are the right years
oh wait no
18 19 and 22
im the only one applying from my class according to my counselor
out of how many
245 i think
nah its small private and catholic
my schools gotten 1 person to columbia in 2020, which is probably the best school any of our grads has recently gone to, and noone to gtown or any ivies in the last 3
generally same mission vision as georgetown
was that person treated like a celebrity
usually happens around here
same 💪
you 🫱🏼🫲🏽 me
religious school trauma
I'm sure they could've skipped every day of school after they got that acceptance letter with radio silence from admin
hahahahahahaha frrr
d1 lacrosse or somethin
im chillin but sorry bout that
oh alr 😭😭😭 just me then
mine was all-girls too
not necessarily traumatic but i would trade it for a banana peel
I think it was purely on academics
but they were also really into theater so i'm sure that helped
Good luck to you as well
i'm sure you'll have more than me XD
within four days it 'll be a done deal or deferral
we'll see
6!!???!? days
def not six
maybe 2
2-4 id say
i didn't take 10 aps before senior year to let this go to waste!
idk what that means
what rocks!
me w mother effing ib lol
AP all DAY!
the funny thing is...
plus I have 1 dual enrollment on my transcript but I doubt thats a deciding factor
no de for me
I wish all my decisions came out earlier
omg guys gt is perfect except for the dorms if u get harbin hall wear shower shoes plz :)))
and its a lot of climbing
their dining if u go to leo’s is actually pretty good but it gets boring fast
On my list
boom see u there
Yuh
well not tomorrow but soon
what major n school did u app for??
same 😅
obsessively reloading the portal
government at the college
see you there <3
i assume its ur first choice??
okay yes same HAHAHAHA HAVE U VISITED
ITS ACTUALLY TH MOST WONDERFUL PLACE ON EARTH
i visited gtown then ucla and usc and i was like wow ucla... sucks
and usc was nice but the vibes of gtown were just so sososo much better
ALSO U WILL NOT BE REJECTED TOMORROW!!! they only accept and defer so
2 not bad possibiliuties
faxxxx
i am trying to make possible georgetown logo
but am struggling
bc there is no good bulldog silhouette
like ig i could do smth like this but i dont rly like it
(i outlined the a2c with gtown grey so its not like every other school's blue)
ok its not even visible when i put it up
nor is the bulldog that distinguishable
that looks so good tho
are we predicting tmrw as release?
y’all this was my dream school earlier in the fall then i fuked up my interview and i ended up not EA’ing so i’m interested to see how y’all do
gl everyone ❤️
and same georgetown hates my hs we have like 20+ applicants each year and we haven’t gotten one person in since co2020
i need to retour georgetown tbh
i didn't like the vibe when i toured in july but.. that's probably bc i toured in the middle of july 😭
i spent a week there that kind of turned me off it but like i need to give it another chance bc DC❤️❤️❤️
I toured it and loved it but i toured it in 2019 and haven’t been back since
damn u were early
DC is so fun bc theres electric scooters everywhere 💀
My sister toured it (she was class of 2021) so i came w her
i lived in the dc area as a kid and ever since i've moved i've wanted to go back😭 i loooove where i live now but dc fascinates me
yeah it’s such a cool city
u can get opportunities in dc you can’t get anywhere else
Nope i didn’t wanna write the essays 😹😹
It’s EA but if you do it you can’t ED anywhere
omg
You could EA to other schools though
did you? bc if you did just withdraw ur app
nah i'm a junior
ohh
yeah i’m a senior 😭 i’m prob gonna ED2 to nyu if my dad comes around on it
but I’ll RD to gu
i wanna ed to columbia but like my chances of getting in are sooo slim i feel like
barnard is always an option too but that's still extremely difficult yk
actually i’d encourage you to! barnard has said on its website it admits 30-45% ED
i wanted to acrually but my dad says nyc is dangerous and wouldn’t let me 😭
columbia is less but you never know. my friend ED there and I’ll lyk when it comes out dec15
Try doing a columbia summer program (if you can afford it)
id love to do one but 3 weeks is so fucking long
true
like they have 1 weeks ones but there commuter only 🫣
one of my friends did a stem research program at nyu for girls and she loved it
wait slay
My friend who’s applying to columbia did the immersion program except she did it online bc of covid
valid
does doing a summer program at columbia boost ur chances of admission?
i hope my georgetown one did 
ok they say it shouldn’t help, but i feel like it should 😭 i’ve heard ppl on reddit and quora say that they did the immersion program and got in, but that’s correlation
oo ya
i should’ve done a gtown program tbh 💀😭
i heard someone on tiktok say they got accepted to georgetown and in their activities list they did a gtown summer program too
ive heard theres generally no correlation but they like to know you did it, similar to touring
alsooo someone i know got this from the AO
idk if theyd say if it was on the 13th, tho
they were really good
helped me find out what i really wanted to do
Yeah, I hear that they give 2 hr notice before they release decisions so before that they’ll probably say the 15th no matter what
It depends. Doing econ research at Yale SOM would improve chances/be very unique and stand out, especially if you get published, but its also near impossible to get that type of research lol
Good luck
i think thats the consensus
How sure are we the decisions will be posted tonight?
idk i’m sorta sure
You can really only go off past precedent until they send the email
keep waiting
i did not make an email
wait till when
just wait for a few minutes idk
I mean I thought they sent them on the 13th for the past few years right?
doesnt mean theyre gonna send it same time again
if they dont send an email does it mean decisions wont be released today?
Wdym send an email?
have they sent an email in the past?
yeah they normally send an email at 5 and release decisions at 7
ugh got me nervous today and everything
i know right
do u think there is a chance they randomly drop them tonight at 7 or tmrw
same lol
has anyone emailed AOs
they need to be faster fr
the decisions are probably already done whats taking so long 😭
theyre releasing them online right
and not going back to the pre pandemic thing where they mail?
why would they mail
thats what they used to do before the pandemic bruh
isntg that stupid
like they mailed in 2019 💀
Ugh I hate all this uncertainty
You sure?
My college counselors apparently got an email is what my friends r telling me
?
if u get my hopes up ill cry
Don't play rn...
bro today was like awful with so many tests and arg v croatia match omfg i need this rn i need closure
felt
if u got in, or for everyone??
losing my mind
is there data on how many ppl applied early?
i did not suffer through a 40 min presentation and a horrible econ test for it not to come out
Fr
ong
This and UChicago and Notre Dame still not having a release date for their decisions is really driving me crazy
FR
AH FUCK
I applied to all 3
THE EMAIL
I J GOT AN EMAIL
THERES AN EMAIL
WHAT
NOOOO
Sent an email
r they fr
Ugh
I’m so mad
At least we know when they'll be
they really edged us and left us hanging
real and true
goddamn at least before it was hope
but now we fs have to waiut anoteghr 2 days
fr it's AN L
Omg more threads i can harass with my meme
!georgetown
Also none of y’all told me about the email for almost three hours
And Georgetown’s admissions insta didn’t post about the time
so ik that it means nothing but georgetown's class of 27 insta page requested to follow me lol
lmao what
theres an insta for class of 27
bro they followed a girl at my school but not me PLS
wdym
did she apply?
Which specific account are you guys referring to because there's a lot of "official class of 2027" Instagram accounts. Are any of these actually administered by the school?
yes
no it says student run so idk how they would have access
maybe they followed first idk
i don’t know but it just requested to follow me it probably means nothing
its not associated with the school and is just a bot
dont worry about it
same bot is a thing for a bunch of other t20s
nah it’s run by a student
idk if someone asked here or on the reddit but no decisions by mail this year
there are a bunch which look the exact same for a bunch of colleges
i dont think it is
they all look the same cuz its a common type of acc XDD
ok but the girl from my school hasn’t been accepted yet
idk why they follow her then
it doesn’t mean anything if they follow u, the person who runs the acc isnt the AO and even if they were you wouldn’t know through a follow
yea ik
the person who runs the georgetown account deferred enrollment so she’s class of 2027
Seems irrelevant so ignore it yeah
who else is scared
and who else got pranked by that email yesterday
all i saw was "georgetown early action decision" at first and i was hyperventilating
im so scared
ME TOO MY HEART WAS BEATING SO FAST
funny seeing u here LOL
i was like huh why is teddy on gtown a2c
Schools don’t follow you on insta
The only reason that would happen is if you knew the person who ran the account once you were already at the school
They don’t follow accepted kids
Especially not before decisions come out
A girl from my grade got rejected from georgetown, idk how she found out already bc ik it’s supposed to come out later?
She was either rejected or waitlisted
you don’t get rejected EA
i’d wait until you get ur ed result back to submit sat bc you have to do it officially
if they find an SAT score from cb sent directly to them w the same name
for mine the names were diff so when i sent the official score report from cb i sent a testing explanation to gtown as well
cant get either of those results EA
My bad im high i thought i was supposed to submit it through their website
yellen???
i’ve been teddy for a while
yes LOL
im hella nervous
good luck everyone ❤️❤️❤️
t- 2 hours and 51 min
did any of y’all get a letter LOL
Would you get a letter even if you got deferred?
no idea
aw shit i didn’t get a letter
i hope so😭
I didn't get a letter either 💀
I hope it means nothing. We'll find out our decision soon anyways so not much of a point looking into it
I really hope too.
i’m so scared actually 💀 we’re less than an hour away
stop im panicking
acceptance letters?
mix i think? ppl on reddit saying
what?
Shittt
So I didn’t get in then I didn’t get a letter
Didn’t get a letter :/
Not that many people get letter
only people from the US from what ive seen
i’m from the us lol
yes, idk why they would do both letters and online but i’m 99.99% sure you can get accepted online
someone said just sfs
i’ve heard in past years hardly anyone gets admitted to the other schools in EA, only sfs
so don’t let it deter u if u don’t get in, you have just as much of a chance in the next pile. that being said best of luck!
damn are u serious?
also for some reason i thought sfs was slightly higher than gu college and mcdonough
shit i applied sfs
yeah bc i heard that somewhere and then also when i checked the early reddit thread, everyone who said they got in were sfs admits
wait so sfs ppl got letters?
some us-based sfs people did
i’m US based sfs
it’s possible only sfs, the ppl who i saw got letters were sfs but not everyone said the school they got into
where on reddit is this
And I already know I’m getting deferred
https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/xkgb2r/georgetown_university_early_megathread/ here is the post, and some ppl in the post said they got acceptance letters and of those who said that they were sfs

Deferred ☹️ thought I had a good chance. Oh well!
But like I asked the admission officer and he was like, we remember our early applicants when they show up in the rd round
