***GEORGETOWN 2021 WAITLIST THREAD***

Also waiting on SFS. What time zone are you in and what time was your call??@ivya123

@ivyaf123 congrats!! May I ask what the phone number was when they called u? My current phone is broken:(

@ivyaf123 cn u share stats and major please?

@ivyaf123 Congrats! Did you have a creative supplement for a waitlist update? I’ve been hearing about people making videos, creating books, etc and it working.

Ok so I live in Rhode Island so I’m in the eastern time zone, I got a call at 2:45 but I knew that because they sent me an email earlier today saying they would call me about my status on the waitlist. The lady told me my FA over the phone and said “the waitlist is huge and we’re only admitting a handful. Congrats, you’re one of the strongest candidates so we are offering you admission.” I wrote them a LOCI the week decisions came out and didn’t do anything since that. My gpa is 4.13 UW, sat is 1580, and I do a lot of ECs and stuff. Hope this helps!

That’s great! Which school did you get in at GT?

I got into Georgetown college

That’s awesome! How many get into the GTC? Btw - guys I heard from an inside source that the SFS is over enrolled this year

@Gt2017 Have you heard anything about MSB?

I have heard they have “some spots” that will open for the waitlist - but I don’t know how many or when they plan to start making calls.

So no hope for anyone for SFS?

I don’t want to say there’s no hope - and it’s not my place to make that kind of statement - but they just said it was over enrolled - which isn’t likely they’ll go to the waitlist. But you never know if students drop out.

K - who are “they”?

Georgetown

Yes, but an admissions officer or other staff?

@ivyaf123 Congrats. I’m curious, what did the person on the phone say about receiving a letter? Also, who sent you the email? Thanks.

@nocturne21 hi, I received an email today from Minal Dhand (assistant director of undergrad admissions) asking when I was available to speak to her on the phone concerning my spot on the waitlist. She said I would get my official letter in a couple of days if I accepted the offer, and how they are still finalizing decisions at this point.

My regional representative is Minal Dhand as well! I have tried to contact her twice before but she never replied…If she said they only gonna take a handful of students, I really doubt I have a chance as an International student.

So that’s it one person we know of has heard? Seems so weird and quiet

I agree @Digirl … heard everyone would hear on the 15th, and maybe that’s the new standard, but I thought like years past there would be a slow release this week …
