<p>^You are absolutely correct.</p>

1162

<p>You apply to a school, and are admitted to or rejected from that school.</p>

1163

<p>OK, so should I assume I’ve been accepted for SFS? </p>

<p>I got this email:</p>

<p>Dear Future Hoya,</p>

<p>But I never got an email from the Georgetown Admissions People directly. I guess I’ll email them to find out if GAAP accidentally emailed me or I did get in!</p>

<p>^You mean deferred RD? Sorry to hear that. You will do great elsewhere.</p>

1166

<p>@Carbon Yes. However, if I were you, I would indubitably call admissions for verification at the first chance I had.</p>

1167

<p>y’all are all ****in lunatics. calm down at the end of the day georgetown is an over priced private school where you pay for a lower GPA. and no i wasn’t denied by georgetown i just chose not to waste 60k/year</p>

1168

<p>jagibbs…“waste” is a very relative word,don’t you think?60K may seem like a waste to you, many of us call it an “investment” into our futures. Another way of looking at it-if say 15/20K in dollars is a reasonable amount in your books,you’ve got to know that many third world countries will consider even that amount a “colossal waste”. So,it’s all about perspective and as the saying goes-one man’s ‘waste’ is another’s …(can someone help fill in the correct word please,lol)!</p>

1169

<p>It’s called financial aid.</p>
