Admission tougher for SFS or business?

<p>Does anyone know if it is tougher to get into Georgetown's SFS or the business school?</p>

<p>SFS definitely</p>

<p>The SFS is very, very selective and due to its prestige probably receives far more applications than MSB. Although the MSB is gaining great momentum with a new dean for next year (professor and former associate dean at Harvard Business School – David A. Thomas), new facility and its most current ranking as #10 in undergraduate business schools according to Bloomberg Businessweek.</p>

<p>Absolutely SFS!!!</p>

<p>I generally agree that SFS is tougher, but I would add that it also depends on the applicant and their strengths, interests, and their individual comparative advantage.</p>

<p>Both schools have admit rates of around 19%. However, the applicants tend to be a bit different, and the SFS pool tends to be HYPS caliber. MSB generally does not attract these types of applicant, but it will attract those that are applying to Penn Wharton.</p>

<p>Your typical SFS applicant is usually applying to and competitive at the top ivies, top LACs, and Stanford. These applicants are usually proficient, or about to become proficient in a language other than English. That being said, a good SFS applicant isn’t necessarily a strong applicant for admission to MSB.</p>

<p>On the other hand MSB applicants tend apply to other schools with good business/econ programs like UVa, Penn, Notre Dame, Northwestern, NYU, Cornell, and Michigan. They may throw in an application to Harvard or Yale for the heck of it.</p>
