yes
it says "submit a personal essay"
Are all the Georgetown essays required cuz I don't think i have anything for the special essay stuff
You should submit essays for all prompts if you wish to have a chance at admission
guys
do the georgetown recs havta be submitted by the 10th asw?
or is there like a slight extension in accepting recs
i ❤️ georgetown
please let me in
see i think the interview made me like the school more
omgg
pls dc 🙏
Same lol
Although I had mine back in September
real LOL
no ya idk i only liked it for dc
but i think the interviewer convinced me
js into attending a school thats not an lac help
bc i am obsessed w those but
georgetown is so hot
guys
if u did club sports
you cant select any of these right
bro where do i add activity descriptions for georgetown
☹️
This is what I used my resume for tbh
Im jsut gonna throw all my common app awards and ecs on there atp
do they care if its like 2-3 pgs long
I did 2 pages
Yeah even 2 is pushing it lol
Not that much I think
But they’ll read the resume if you submit
It’s on the College Board website
There’s an option to send your newest scores, and then it will send all of your previous scores at the same time also
gotcha ty
anyone know if mid-year reports are required if admitted rea?
wait ya the deadline is 11:59 pm 10th rightttt
Are the mid-year reports sent by counselors from the same link as they sent the initial transcript?
I don’t see an option on the portal for a request for the mid-year
yes
ok tysmm
Also anyone applying to AU pls upvote on the thread
aeteau?
american uni 😭
the essays were optional?
They are not
whyyyy does gtown make me send my official ap scores 😭 they should just trust me fr
- why do i have to either send ALL of my scores or none of them 💀
collegeboard try not to be the worst company in the world challenge (impossible)
this is why i sent none
😸
bro i just realized this today too
I used a slightly shorter version of my common app essay
You mean the special talents? It doesn’t have to be something only you have. I wrote about cooking and sports and other stuff.
i feel so goofy begging my rec letter writers to submit their letters to an entirely new application portal
literally me rn
real
i felt so bad 💀
"pls sorry i forgot not ONLY do you have to do coalition & common app, heres another one!"
"thank you so so so so much"
bro that was me
guys is the deadline 11.59 local time? or does it close early at like 11.59 est or smth
11:59 local time
georgetown 🩵
is there confettiii
😢
real asf
oh..
gonna screenshot everything then 💀 for my peace of mind
wait no they show u the pdf of ur responses after u submit
but also its strange bc they cut some of ur answers off
so idk
oh btw the deadline is et if yall needed it?? https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1hxxvl9/georgetown_is_due_1159_est_time/
bro i need to finish by 10:59 💀 (jk i will)
asldfkj
did u do pt 1?
the form?
before the actual app?
also are any of their essays like the personal statement?
yes, there's a personal statement, a why major/georgetown school (cas, sfs, msb, wtvr) essay - a whole page basically ~600-650 words, then 250 words skills, and then 1/2 page for an ec (~250-300 words)
yea
est is my time zone 😉
is the ps the short essay?
no its the "As Georgetown is a diverse community, the Admissions Committee would like to know more about you in your own words. Please submit a brief personal or creative essay which you feel best describes you and reflects on your personal background and individual experiences, skills, and talents. (1 page, single-spaced)"
time to start
HELP?!
real
i finished writing im js waiting
cus i dont feel like touching that shitty platform
uhhh
this is insane..
chill bro the AOs aren’t in this server 😭🙏
HELPP
real
how tf does this look good to u
this is a wall of text
ikr
time to start
crazy
imma lock in rn
ima wing the whole thing bruh
Chat gpt on top 🙏
Common app is terrible
I honestly like no joke tho it is over hyped to be terrible
clearly you have never had the misfortune of using the uc application website
the worst part about the UC website is that it doesnt save
you can do like 10 things and it will sporadically choose 4 to remember
putting in every single class grade and difficulty was torturous
esp considering i am enrolled in three schools at once 💀 it wouldnt let me input fall classes if i didnt also input spring classes, or it wouldnt let me input summer but not fall courses
literally the most braindead system ever
real
almost done with this resume
no FR
stupid ass platform with NO descriptions for ecs
starting rn
brother it says when u sign ur georgetown app "no ai helped me in the process"
😸
or wtvr
no ai wrote my essays for me!1!!
oh absolutely. no ai helped me at all
all fun and games 😉
yes!
what font did yall use for your essays?
if i run a business, does that fall under Activities or Work Experience?
light work
if you're getting paid i would put it under work, if not id put it under activities
great thanks
earning money, i should rephrase
okay sweet
YESSS THERES NO WORD LIMIT IN THE EMPLOYER
WOOOOOOO
did u finish
bro georgetown separate app gave me an anuerysm
they should js accept me cus i went thru a lot
no i finished putting in my work experience 💀
help real
not too shabby im on the third prompt
only thing im slightly worried abt is starting and finishing the activity/work seciton
🫡
just go ec optional
trust
perhaps
(do not go ec optional)
me asf
also guys did yall email ur interviewer a copy of your resumes
i printed mine out and gave it to him
my guy asked for mine and we're meeting in like 3 days
ok ya if he asks for urs, then go ahead
send it
but nah mine didnt
& i js did virtual LOL
maybe cuz im applying to biz
oh i see
she said she only got my name & email
idk
so they prolly dont know ur major
/school
oh i see
hella weird coincidence
maybe tey know the school
yea
same for me
sfs
is georgetown a really serious school
but my friend applied to the med school and she got the same guy as me
my essay might not be serious enough
idk
omg my skills essay was ridiculous
i talk ab brat 💀
they have a concession store called hoya snaxa lol
please take me 🙏
so should i be worried
when i was on campus they were chill
i dont know
bro i had an issue & called admissions office and they so mad or smth
💀
why was she so condescending
god
i lived there for 3 weeks and everyone was nice
0/10 experience
wait the AOs dont answer calls correct..
lets make sure that doesnt affect my decision idk
cus she aint even answer my question ahh
good 2 hear
same w penn state tbh
no fr 😭 they were NOT nice
can you read my essay and lmk if its on top or not
really 😭
well im going to make this calvin and hobbes joke anyways idc
i wanna see this essay
speedrun ahh
ok real
my skills essay was deeply unserious
😂
hopefully they're humorous
mine was abt origami 💀
unlike THE ADMISSIONS OFFICE I CALLED
im jus doing bullets
real
tbh the person manning the phones doesnt have the fun job
the essay reader is probably more chill
right
the call person just gets anxious parents
ong 😍
alright time to eat dinner
god georgetown please pleas eplease
and ppl mad abt deferrals prolly
will be back in 30 minutes to write the last essay
real gl
tell the jesuit leader to let you in
i would put $80 in for this school i already did
then they have to
fee waiver gang 😎
the mark lauinger library is really nice. i used to go there everyday over the summer and i became g's with the security guard there
Arturo Sosa, according to a google search
ur good, esp if u have course grades
okayy
Arturo Marcelino Sosa Abascal SJ is a Venezuelan Catholic priest who serves as the 31st and present superior general of the Society of Jesus. He was elected by the Society's 36th General Congregation on 14 October 2016, succeeding Adolfo Nicolás. He is the first person born in Latin America to lead the Jesuits. Wikipedia

wait i just realized i got the ap scholar w honors award...
lmao

yea it looks like i cant just send 1
idfk why georgetown doin allat 💯 ong
wait is this any good
I live in California dude of course I applied to UCs
well put it if u have space
dawg they got my bad sat essay score from school day sat.. am i cooked
i didnt try on thus
its like they dont trust us to tell the truth on our standardized test scores 😭
cus reddit said u dont need to worry ab that
why do i have to pay like 100 bucks to prove im not lying
no fr
My rankings for all the apps I’ve done:
UC portal
Georgetown
CSU
Common app
By friendliness
when im not even admitteddd
how the fuck is georgetown above common app?!??!
common app is SO easy
and theres a nice preview
I hated common app
do not let bro cook ever again
common app, then scoir, then georgetown
ong
It was difficult updating my colleges and decision plans
cannot be THAT hard
u js answer the questions..
😭
Not if u have to change it
Plus it looks like it’s from the 1900s
am i cooked if my sat scores are like a hill
dawg georgetown is sm worse 😞
like up and down
Name one reason
literally sm text and there isnt a clean interface
also makes u upload 3/4 essays
annoying asf
why i gotta download everything as a pdf
The compartments are weird on common app
even 3 lines of addtl info 💀
At least they give u a lot of room to talk about urself
U get like what 50 characters for common app activities
Only 1 other took mine
one page single space is so vague, like they dont give font/size/border specificatons at all
Only GU and GWU for me
no fr
That’s the best part!!!
i literally squeezed together my common app essay 💀
😭
I just found a skinny times new like font
for work experiences why does it say you can only list up to 2 but it let me put 3
Cause ur supposed to stop urself…
oh....
it made me stop at 3
You’ll be fine prolly
maybe its a test of willpower
im actually feeling a sense of dread. might be cooked
I got deferred in December and forgot all about the app process until now😜
dawg georgetowns proof of application
WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE THAT
idk
bro fuck this school (pls take me)
😭 gang lets lock in
r u doe
DONE
no 
does
georgetown
accept late recs
let's say i finish the application and the supps before deadline 11:59pm 1/10, but the rec letter requests still waiting (will be late)
is that fine
well it says like all materials by 11:59 pm et
so idk
😭
the lady told me later sat ok
but i dont knowab recs
I think so?
Maybe I feel like they said something about that
No that’s interviews nvm
ok it should be fine then?!?!
alright chat im back
god knows man
Charles Deacon (CAS ’64, GRD ’69) has served as dean of undergraduate admissions for four decades. In that time, Deacon, a first-generation college graduate, has helped transform Georgetown from a school that barely stood out in Washington to an elite national university. As admission season kicks into gear with the early action deadline Nov. 1,...
bro this man runs admissions
oh so hes like
80?!?!?
no wonder everything is oudated dawg
wait
wait
if i do the georgetown application
will i receive the part 2 (supplemental) in under 30 minutes
no
it takes a long time
i had to wait a day
you cannot fill the supplemental out in 30 minutes 😭
maybe you will have better luck
you can technically
Mine took like 4 hours
remember gpt is king
i can
I wouldn’t risk it
cuz all the questions are literally
Waste of money
perfect copy paste except why us
fee waiver
welp i'm not gonna make it intime
lmao
unless they send the supplemental part 2
in less than 30 minutes
😦
then i can clutch up
Worth a shot
If it’s free what r u losing
They might tho
U never know
If it’s free
Either it goes thru and u do it in time or it doesn’t and it was free anyways
how tf u gonna write a 600 word why major in 30 mins exactly
They already have it
Oh
it took me like 3-4 hours to write it i think
That’s cringe
already have it
upenn's m&t essay
the 650 word essay
is literally a perfect one to one copy for that why major
💀
gotta do what you gotta do my man
they wont im like 90% sure they have some intern manually doing it lmfao
georgetown is so backwards technology wise
they literally didnt even send emails until 2020
ok well i doubt part 2 is gonna come in the hour 💀
what the heck
okay lets divy up our time
30 minutes for the 2 remaining essays
then 20 to review
more like

bro i was like telling her ab my parents and she like "yea i knew indian families in raleigh durham area who opened laundries/restaurants"
like bro wtf
how is that relevant
and she was like "i can put u in touch w georgetown asian/first gen students!!!"
"georgetown has GREAT chinese programs"
dawg im an econ major wtf..
"i have a black friend" ahh
no FR
she wasnt like inherently racist but uh shes like a white woman from mass 😭 def not like
shes js very privileged lets put it that way
idek cus she be like "man, i cant imagine what its like to deal w that"
😭
LMAOOO
interesting experience to say the least..
ugh this is my first inteview so i hope i dont mess it up
i mean she was very nice but erm
hopefully my interviewer is nice
these r not normal questions 😭
omg good luckk
yo i had a bad interview experience too
when is it?
WAIT LITERALLY ON REDDIT I SAW PPL WITH LIKE STRANGE GEORGETOWN INTERVIEWS TOO
my interviewer genuinely did not gaf about anything i said lmao
HELPP
a week lol
he asked me about my hobbies and i was telling him about them and he was like ok anyway i got all i needed bye
and i was tweaking out cuz it was only like
yes i saw racist interview interviewer help
ok mine was not this bad
barely mroe than halfway over our interview time
but she was weird asf
WHATT
so when he asked me "anythign else' i just spit out all my why georgetown reasons
wait theres an interviewer time?
thats crazy 😭
like a limit?
well the google meet thing he sent out was like x amoutn of time
i think it can go longer
guys ive never heard of a normal gtown interview
he was tryna dip WAY before that
no fr
i was hoping i was the exception
like ive heard probably like 10 different stories at this point and NONE of them have been good
😞
oh also i was telling him about one of my ecs (nonprofit) and he asks so what are your statsitics on your impact
HELP?!
its okay thatll be my coping mechanism
no fr
ok but she hella sympathized w me tho
so a W is a W
ik that report was fire 😭 bro after she milked my diversity
and the thing is my npo like... does stuff for other npos. so i dont know what the other npos do with the stuff i give to them 😭
so i just told him about the volume of work we did
b2b moment
thatscrazt
georgetown pretentious af
everything dawg
separate app, requiring all test scores that r official, etc
facts bro who do they think they are
god
no ong
hey hey we do it for free and we cold email npos
LMAO im kidding i do b2b so i just thought the similarity was funny
lmaoooo
why does no one have a normal gtown interview
oh wait i didnt even mention
my interviewer was traveling when i got assigned to him
so he was like lets do it in mid jan
and i was like ok bet
and then he was like nvm your deadline is jan 10 lets do it on DECEMBER 30
and i was like georgetown allows me to have the interviewer later and he was like
no this is important
oh and he was late to my call
LMFAO
the real cherry on top
bro thats so funny why are gtown people like this
cant wait to see what a character mine is
my early interview actually went really horribly too but like that was an isolated experience
oh and then i asked hima bout the culture of the school/collaborative vs competitive (a pretty normal question imo) and he got lwk snippy
gtown it seems like everybody is just a little wonk
oh i sent him a thank you email and he never replied (i know he saw it cuz i have a google chrome extension)
💀
i need that extension
I feel like I asked more questions to my interviewer than she did me
Oh nah
Just got the part 2 supps email
☠️
No point in submitting after deadlone right
no FR
i dont think they do extensions
HELP??
mine was v nice yk
js like
odd & kinda out of touch 💀
wait help ok so i took school day sat but i had a horrendous essay score..
um do they look at that 😭
may be putting the fries in the bag for georgetown ❤️
whats your best score?
well no like the essay idfk what i got
like a 16/24 or smth
well sat wise, i have a 1480
which is 50th % anyways
help 😭
ok well they consider ur highest + superscore
i guess
idek why they want all
mine is 1380 --> 1420 --> 1390 --> 1430 --> 1480 💀
Damn I couldn’t get myself to take that test again
Y’all have more determination than me lmao
real 😭
my parents would've been pissed LMAO
if i didnt retake it
real 😭
bro georgetown everything fucked me over
Typical college board ig
What
ong
Test required?
Yea
so i js didnt do ap 💀
Charles deacon thing lmao
Idek anymore
Bro graduated in like the 50s
No disrespect
My issue is with the EA system
They should add an ed
Or idk maybe not
Bc I was so on the fence about eding to BC or just rding to keep gtown chances alive
which one r u gna do?
ED
Idk maybe I shouldn’t have in hindsight
It is
Gtown is too I got to visit both
oh nicee omg
Probably not
hmm ok 😭
I could check though
My worry was with yield stuff or at least my parents’ concern
Cuz my brother goes here and since BC and gtown have a big overlap that might be a turnoff for BC
I personally don’t think so
But my parents were adamant about it lmao
i lowk might take the march sat
u can do feb act but uhh
doesnt march sat come out like
late mar
😭
decisions alr out
LOL they actually sent the part 2
2 am
that was pretty fast
but it's 2 hrs after deadline so no point in doin ig
😭
yea idk 😭
if u wanna try.. but idk
i doubt they reading apps 2day
fr
You can get in after submitting your application late
wait i js sent my ap scores late help
do yall think thats fine
😭 i really want em considered now
oh
i can still submit the application late?
u sure?
would they just disregard it
I submitted mine late and got a decision
(this was for EA not RD, but if you already paid the application fee, there’s little downside to submitting it if it’ll let you)
