<p><em>Unless someone here works on the Board of Admissions at GTown, take these chances with a grain of salt</em></p>

<p>I feel like you’d be better applying to the College of Arts and Sciences. Your resume shows no real passion for business (i.e. creating a start up, working at a nice firm, etc.).
(sorry if that sounds harsh)</p>

<p>Chances
School of Business - Low/Mid Reach (no ECs)
College of Arts - low reach/high match (depending on Essays)</p>

<p>:) enjoy and good luck!</p>

<p>I took Macroeconomics and Microeconomics, the only two business-related Advanced Placement courses offered by the College Board. I also worked my whole time in high school. I don’t agree with you that you have to have an internship or something like that. But thanks for your opinion.</p>

<p>Georgetown is tough to get in for anyone but I think its a low reach for you. Good luck!!
