Judging by last year’s thread, letters got to most East Coast and central states a couple days before the 15th, while most West Coast applicants received them a couple days after the 15th

Did anyone get an email confirming that you were eligible for EA? I got one from the other schools I’m applying EA to but didn’t get one from Georgetown, so I’m kinda worried
@sungjong They only emailed you if something was missing or incomplete. If they never contacted you after confirming that your app was submitted then you should be fine.
@ThatGuy1998 Oh, I see! That’s much more reassuring Thanks!
So, Georgetown just mails decision letters? Anyone got theirs yet? ahhhh!
Where did you hear that^^???
They just mailed letters??
Can anyone confirm?
I think @ans2016 meant that they only* mail decisions and thus do not email them, not that they have just sent them in the mail.
There’s a facebook group for class of 2020 applicants which says that decisions are definitely sent out on the 11th. Since I’m from NJ, that could mean finding out Saturday or Monday! ahh!!
Does anyone know when Massachusetts should get letters? I’ve heard east coast is before west coast…
@lizard27 How big is the group? Could you post the link to join or send it to me please?
@lizard27 send me the link!
I’ve never hated living in SoCal but this time may be the exception…
