Anyone get in with lower stats?

<p>Self-explanatory. I have a 3.7 GPA, 1950 SAT and I know that Gtown is a reach but I'm wondering if I should even try. My ECs are good. It's not a life or death thing where I'll regret it forever if I don't apply but I do rather like the school.</p>

<p>Then apply, why not its only 60 bucks. Not like your waisting a fortune on it.</p>

<p>go for it. If you never try, you have NO chance. If you try, who knows? I got in with a slightly lower SAT score than yours!</p>

<p>hey, you should definitely apply. i didn't think i'd get in, but i'm starting this fall. what school would you apply to?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot everyone...I think I'm going to apply. I'm leaning toward SFS right now, but I may change my mind and apply for College...I've got both essays written, I just have to decide which to check on my app. :)</p>

<p>If you're interested in poli sci or IntAf, definitely choose SFS (where I'm going!). Just make it clear that you're passionate about Sino-American relations or whatever you're into in the essays or an addendum or something.</p>

<p>conversely if you decide to apply to the college make sure you emphasize how interested you are in all facets of the liberal arts education.</p>

<p>Just apply, you've got nothing to lose. I got in EA with an 1860. Just stress other things on your application that you're passionate about. They look at the whole package, not just your sat scores like some schools do. Good luck!</p>

<p>haha i'm also applying with low stats..28 act, 3.8 gpa..we're like in the same boat but i'm applying to the school of nursing and health sciences..as an international health major. it's cus i'm not applying early anywhere else, might as well to a reach!</p>

<p>there was a kid on the oclass of 2010 georgetown thread that got in with a 1670....so you never know</p>

<p>Coolio...thanks guys.</p>

<p>I thought about applying to the Ivies just for the heck of it the other day and then thought "why bother? i'd rather go to georgetown." If I'm going to apply to a reach I have a low shot of getting into, I might as well make it GT or JHU which I like MUCH MUCH more than any of the oh-so-famous Ivies.</p>
