<p>Excuse me if this has been previously discussed ...... it looks like Georgetown really lowered their EA acceptance rate this year from around 16% to 13%. Is this accurate? Any thoughts on why?</p>
<p>Here’s an article from the Hoya that provider a little bit more detail</p>
<p>[Early</a> Admissions Rate Declines to Record 13% - The Hoya](<a href=“http://www.thehoya.com/early-admissions-rate-declines-to-record-13-1.2969583#.UO5EMm9ZV8E]Early”>http://www.thehoya.com/early-admissions-rate-declines-to-record-13-1.2969583#.UO5EMm9ZV8E)</p>
<p>Thanks…that is great article that explains it well. I appreciate your sending it.</p>
<p>That makes me feel a little better about being deferred. Only like 400-something for the College, that’s nothing! Most people have more Facebook friends than that.</p>
<p>Georgetown is known to be quick to defer. In the past, many students at my daughter’s school have been deferred and later accepted.</p>
