Georgetown Class of 2017 EA/RD Discussion Thread

<p>nebraskagal,
I’m from Nebraska too (Omaha). Not in today’s mail here either. Guess it’s Monday then.</p>

<p>I’m from omaha too! Georgetown’s my top choice but if I don’t get in it looks like I’ll be going to Creighton. A very small number of students apply to gtown from Nebraska so maybe that’ll help us?</p>

<p>Waitlisted in Tennessee…Georgetown was my first choice, so I’m grateful to not be rejected completely, but this honestly is almost worse than a rejection. Another month and a half of waiting…</p>

<p>just received an acceptance in Texas! so thrilled :)</p>

<p>No mail in Southern California, but I wasn’t expecting it since East Coasters hadn’t received anything by Thursday… Probably Monday or Tuesday at the latest.</p>

<p>Congrats! I am also from Texas! Houston as a matter of fact. Hopefully I see that acceptance! :)</p>

<p>Dreaming awake…may I ask your stats?</p>

<p>@2017wannabe I posted them on the other thread</p>

<p>I am really shocked! I don’t think I even deserved to be admitted…but regardless I am very happy especially after being waitlisted at my top 2 choices. I had completely written Georgetown off, but I guess this just proves how much of a lottery this process is…</p>

<p>Penn State Schryer - Rejected
Notre Dame - Waitlisted
Cornell - Rejected
Columbia - Rejected
University of Pennsylvania - Rejected
Georgetown - Rejected
University of Virginia - Rejected
New York University - Waitlisted
Yale University - Rejected</p>

<p>I don’t think I’ve ever been more depressed in my life.</p>

<p>@Vicimus: Mind if I ask some of your stats. It doesn’t seem like you built in much of a safety there.</p>

<p>I know. Test scores were too low. 2090 SAT: 690/710/690. 31 ACT: 36/31/32/29. I was accepted to Penn State Main so I considered that my safety. Don’t care for it though. I guess I’ll take a year off or go to Penn State and try to transfer and study all summer I don’t know. Wasted my whole entire high school seeing as I’m going to school with the pot heads.</p>

<p>My daughter received her letter today, in the San Francisco area. It’s thin, so not an acceptance. Were the waitlist envelopes thin, too? She won’t be home for a few hours, so we still don’t know, except that it’s not an acceptance.</p>

<p>No mail in Houston, Texas yet… checked a few hours ago
This is the last college I’m waiting on! I’m ready for it all to be over!</p>

<p>I just thought I’d throw it out there that, for those willing, it would be awesome if you’d post your stats (positive or negative) to help out future applicants.</p>

<p>Congrats to those accepted. My apologies to those rejected. Keep your hopes up to those waitlisted.</p>

<p>@vicimus all schools have a variety of groups/circles of friends. I’m sure you’ll find a great group at penn state. Im sure you’ll really shine there.</p>

<p>I agree. No college is comprised of solely one archetype. Hell no place is. I’m sure you’ll find someone there just as talented and driven as you are. Similar people tend to be drawn to the same things.</p>

<p>accepted in Pittsburgh, PA! hopefully financial aid works out because if it doesn’t it’ll be Pitt for me :/</p>

<p>Similar situation here. If I don’t get a killer aid package, it’s UMD for me. Which I wouldn’t really lose sleep over honestly.</p>

<p>letter has not arrived in Georgia yet…</p>
