Georgetown Class of 2018 (HS Class of 2014)

<p>Let me know what they say on the phone! I want to know where my letter is :(</p>

<p>im from MA and i have yet to get my letter. the mail came already and nada</p>

<p>hmm that’s super weird! perhaps the weather has been affecting mail delivery routes in your area.</p>

<p>Updates, anyone?</p>

<p>Here’s a little blurb: I got my scores from the December ACT, and I raised my math and science by 7 points. I now have a 34 composite and a 35 superscore. I actually have some faith for Regular Decision. :)</p>

<p>good job! Just handed in my app. Got a bit carried away with the SFS essay which ended up being 800 words…hopefully they’re gripped. I forgot how small a font I type in so it looked like only a little over a page, at least it wasn’t filled with fluff. Let the waiting begin…</p>

<p>Yeah, it’s better for the essays to be shorter and concise than longer and fluffed up.</p>

<p>Everybody keep the faith. (Les Miserables).</p>

<p>Why Georgetown is da best: I visited the National Archives today to see the Declaration of Independence and then came home and decided to watch National Treasure to celebrate it, and to get a snapchat of the scene where we find out Ben Gates (Nic Cage) went to… Georgetown.</p>

<p>Should we hear about regular decision results before April 1st?</p>

<p>I wish it would come sooner :frowning: The wait kills!</p>

<p>@MHSgirl5696 According to some previous year threads, I think the decisions mostly came out late March so a little bit before the notification date they have on their website… but you never know</p>

<p>Also, I’m pretty sure Georgetown doesn’t post them online. They mail them. Or at least they have in previous years.</p>

<p>Decisions are mailed in small envelopes. The way to know before you even open the envelope is to check if there’s a blue piece of paper inside. If you have the blue paper, then you’re in.</p>

<p>Unfortunately I didn’t get the opportunity to open my letter. My sister opened it while I was at school xD</p>

<p>So, does anyone have any predictions on when they’ll send letters? I read some old threads and figured out they usually send them on the Thursday the Ivies release (except for one year when it was Tuesday), but I’m wondering/hoping if they might release a bit earlier than normal since the applicant pool decreased.</p>

<p>do those living overseas get mail too? or email?</p>

<p>The applicant pool decreased like an insignificant amount, so.</p>

<p>International get emails.</p>

<p>How do you guys know that the applicant pool decreased? Do you suppose that the acceptance rate of 17% will remain?</p>

<p>They mentioned it in an article on their home site i believe. I remember reading it somewhere.</p>

<p>Admissions office says it’ll either be April 1 or the Friday before that. </p>

<p>I hope its the Friday before!</p>
