<p>ACCEPTED!!! Rocky Mountains</p>

<p>ugh, SoCal why you no deliver GU decisions today!?</p>

<p>@1V1 - Thank you. I think that confirms the deny. This envelope has only one piece of paper.</p>

<p>^just open it! lol</p>

<p>Waiting until monday to hear in MI…really anxious about Georgetown it’s my first choice. So far I’ve been accepted to the University of Michigan and Boston College and rejected from Williams College, Brown University, Columbia University, Dartmouth College, and UPenn and wait listed at George Washington for some reason, and wait listed at Vanderbilt…</p>

<p>If we don’t get a letter on Monday, can we call and ask about our decision? I’m worried mine won’t come since we just moved, it may have been delivered to my old address or something, as it should have arrived yesterday (my friends in the area got theirs then)…gahhh I’m so nervous</p>

<p>If you don’t get your letter by Monday, I would certainly call the admissions office. I didn’t get my EA letter on time, so I called and they basically read the admissions letter to me. Good luck!</p>

<p>Ok, thanks! I hope it just comes though, being read a rejection letter (since I’m pretty sure that’s what’s going to happen) would be pretty depressing…</p>

<p>Portland, OR
i got my letter yesterday. ACCEPTED!</p>

<p>Please transfer all decisions to the results thread where stats are easier to be found. Just copy and paste. Thanks</p>

<p>Could I call tomorrow morning and ask for my decision to be read to me? My mail comes late afternoon/evening so I will not be able to focus at school tomorrow if I’m anxious to know.</p>

<p>is the acceptance letter multiple letters? or only 1?</p>

<p>@emy2395, the acceptance letter comes in a regular letter-sized envelope, but it has several pieces of paper and an additional reply envelope enclosed.</p>

<p>I still haven’t received my letter and I live in DE… And they’re not releasing decisions over the phone until tomorrow. Great.</p>

<p>Just got letter in New Orleans. Waitlist …</p>

<p>Anyone in Southern California get anything?</p>

<p>I live in southern DE @deepblue14 and I haven’t gotten my letter either!</p>

<p>Daughter got an acceptance letter in the mail today. We live in the New England area.</p>

<p>Rejected here in Nebraska, congrats to all who got in!</p>

<p>Got my mail & was accepted into NHS today. There are actually two letters…one from the admissions office and one from the financial aid office. I’ll post stats later.</p>

<p>Congrats to everyone else who got in. I hope to maybe see some of you guys this fall. For those waitlisted and rejected, I give you guys my greatest condolences. Everyone on here is super talented and intelligent and Georgetown will be missing out on you guys! I wish everyone to best wherever you attend. Here’s to the class of 2013! We (almost) did it! :D</p>
