I haven’t received a call, mail, or email…
omg same @wlsdyd
has your mail been delivered yet? @wlsdyd @crowningflowers ?
@betwixt are you talking about the mail to stay on the Waitlist? I did that on the website they provided for us
@wlsdyd I assumed you meant mail as in postal mail in your last comment … I’ve heard GTown sends acceptances / rejections / extended waitlist by mail (postal) … seems some people got calls / emails last week, and thought the rest of us were waiting for delivered mail … when you said you hadn’t received anything I just wondered if that was it for today as well. Our mail was delivered and nothing either … another day …
did anyone get anything today yet
Does anyone know approx how many students they put on the EWL per school at GT? What are the chances of coming off? And does it mean we are last pick?
This is from 2 years ago but my D received no phone call, no email, no change to portal. She just went to the mailbox and there was a letter asking if she wanted to accept a spot on the extended wait list.
Did she come off the waitlist? That’s what I am wondering, how many actually come off the EWL?
Believe it or not, kids did get offers. My D was going for the Walsh School…which is so crazy hard…here at CC, in maybe very late June/early July, a girl who truly sounded like my D in every demographic & stat-way made it off the WL and posted the results here at the Georgetown board…at that moment, I knew she had gotten the one open spot for that school & the demographic they needed.
Ugh, I bet your heart sank knowing that girl got the spot. My S is going for the MBS -and is on the EWL - They said we’d know by June 30th.
@SouthernHope Did you get a financial aid package letter with the acceptance? Maybe they call those that applied for aid to give them the package over the phone first to make sure they would accept.
@Gt2017 I am going for MSB as well. The initial waitlist statistics did not look good, but I have no idea about the stats for the EWL. Good luck to your son!
Rejected from College. Urg this is upsetting because four girls from my school all got in with worse grades, test scores, ECs. They didn’t take a single guy. it’s ridiculous. I just don’t know what they did to get in. What the heck did I do wrong? Worst part about it is that 2 of them aren’t going!!! Legit, they took the most homogenous crowd I’ve ever seen: 4 white girls from affluent families, with some familial afiliation with Hilary Clinton. THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME TOO - BROWN HAIR AND PALE AF!

ACT: 35 (36 R, 35 E, 34 S, 33 M, 35 W)

General Comments : Dunno what Georgetown wants, but I guess they already have my demographic filled up. Seriously really salty because I was able to get into schools that were more selective and Gtown was still my first choice. Really really salty right now. I wish I could be happy for everyone else, but this is… i don’t even know… just upsetting.
There goes my career in politics, who give a hoot anyways lol - Go wildcats
and goodluck to whoever still likes this confusing institution
I applied to the Mcdonough School of Business and received my rejection letter last night. I have now decided that I will be attending Babson College now.
Georgetown was my dream school since day one and it is sad to not be able to achieve that dream.
still no acceptances yet?
So sorry to read this and I feel your pain. My son is still on the EWL for MBS - and I can’t figure out their rhyme or reason. But I do believe that in life when one door shuts - there’s an open window that will lead you in the direction that you are intended to go. So trust fate - and go live your life to the fullest and don’t look in the rearview mirror - you aren’t heading in that direction.
Wishing you the best First year in college- ever!
Has anyone else recieved notification? I am still waiting. I live in Texas btw.
Hi! I was offered a spot on the EWL on Monday and accepted. Georgetown is definitely my first choice so there’s no doubt I would go if I was offered a spot. Anyone know what being on the EWL means exactly? Does this mean I have a chance at all? Sucks having to possibly wait until June 30th 
From what I understand, you do still have a chance of getting off the EWL. I do not think anyone knows the percentages, but if it helps, not many are offered a spot on the EWL @senior513 .
I haven’t been posting in this thread, but I’ve been along for the SFS waitlist ride… On the EWL now and I’m just wondering is this still to fill the class, or only for use if an enrolled student drops for whatever reason between now and June 30th? I remember hearing from a potentially credible source in this thread that SFS was already right, so I’m confused what this really means. If accepted, I would attend over Tufts (which I chose over Hopkins) but I’m really trying to pretend like GTown doesn’t really exist right now. Is there anything to do now other than wait it out though? I submitted a LOCI immediately after the initial waitlist but no additional rec yet.
