<p>I know the FLL is part of the college, but I was wondering if it is easier/harder to be accepted into the college if you checked off FLL as your choice?
Thanks!</p>
<p>I really hope it is too! I applied as a Linguistics major and I can’t wait for my letter, what did you apply as?</p>
<p>French major, although I love Linguistics 
EA, right? Where do you live?</p>
<p>I live on Long Island, so hopefully the competition won’t kill me! And yeah I applied EA too, I actually wrote my essay on teaching myself French, I love it! (although I prefer spanish :)</p>
<p>Spanish was my first language, but I definitely prefer French.
By the way, Harry Potter reference in your username, or am I imagining it?</p>
<p>Haha no, my username is just a reference to my name, although I am a fan of Harry potter!</p>
<p>And I’m in ap Spanish and French right now, but let’s just say I feel much more confident about the Spanish haha. </p>
<p>Ah I’m dying from the anxiety, hopefully the fact that there aren’t a lot of linguistics majors at gtown will help me! Best of luck to all FLL applicants too!!</p>
<p>ah i’m literally stalking cc right now seeing if anyone near me got their letter- i’m from LI too
italian major, and i wrote part of my essay on teaching myself french and spanish… good luck everyone!!</p>
<p>griffonr, how did you find out that there aren’t many linguistics majors?</p>
<p>I sent someone on here a PM about the FLL and linguistics (he applied as a ling. major) and he told me that there weren’t many at gtown. </p>
<p>And I’m starting to feel the competition, it looks like we’ve all taught ourselves languages!</p>
<p>I really hope it doesn’t all boil down to GPA’s, because some of my science and math classes have been B’s, and I would really hate for that to ruin my chances in a program that has nothing to do with them.</p>
<p>I feel the same way! I got a B and a C in math and chemistry sophomore year, so I realllly hope they look primarily at our grades in foreign languages.</p>
<p>ughh I can’t wait until Tuesday!</p>
<p>I wish there were actual statistics detailing the admission rates for the FLL</p>
<p>I’m honestly surprised that there aren’t…</p>
<p>I wonder if the general consensus is if the FLL is easier or harder to get into? I guess that would depend on how many students they accept, but who knows.</p>
<p>I’ve heard harder =/
But I wonder if it’s easier if you have an obvious passion for languages? Idkkkk</p>
<p>I applied to FLL as a linguistics major…in spite of the fact that I’ve heard that the FLL is difficult to get into. </p>
<p>I’m hoping my love for languages gets me in, though!</p>
<p>I’m really hoping a demonstrated love for languages helps…my personal essay was about teaching myself french, my “why FLL” essay was about my life and georgetown, and my activity essay was about study abroad!</p>
<p>Hopefully they can realize how much we all love languages and look over a blemish or two.</p>
<p>I’ve heard it’s easier… they also have lower stats (not to say that’s indicative of anything)</p>
<p>Really? Is that just word of mouth, or do they post the incoming stats somewhere?</p>
