First congrats to your daughter! I’m a current student and though I’m in the SFS and not the MSB I will say that it definitely is a really collaborative environment. The MSB sometimes gets a bad rep for being more competitive because of the curve but in reality I’ve always found Georgetown students to be really collaborative and helpful towards one another. They are driven yes but compete more with themselves and push themselves to be the best that they can be. There’s not a whole lot of undermining each other and that sort of behavior just really isn’t tolerated by the general culture. I honestly think the Jesuit values have a lot to do with it. It’s a really welcoming and supportive community. I don’t think the few posts by disgruntled students here really reflect the culture at all and I think most Hoyas feel the same way.
This gave me hope! Thanks!
How are you notified of the decision? It was not in my mail, and the website doesn’t say how to find out (and the office is closed too!) so I don’t know where to look.
