When they will begin review tghe applications and when we"re gonna here from them the decision?
@mb-side they are probably already reviewing our applications; read up three comments for the answer to your second question
If I remember correctly first person heard back late april last year. like the 29th I believe.
@Gonzalo0927 till when did they extend it?
@Robinyoursoul Thanks!
@phillysteak did you end up calling Georgetown for an early read?
Does asking for an early read hurt your admission chances?
@lexluther96 something I’ve also wondered. I know being patient Is the key to this, but I’ve always wondered what kind of hurt it would do to ask for an early read. Is Georgetown your top pick?
@Robinyoursoul It’s almost tied with UC Berkeley for me, but yes. I like the schools for different reasons. Georgetown is your top, right?
UMich wants me to commit by May 1st, and the UCs want me to by June 1st. I really don’t want to pay the SIR fees twice, which is why I asked if asking for an early reading affects our apps
@lexluther96 Two SIR fees? Ouch! I’m in the same
predicament with George Washington U. and their fee is $800 due May 1st. I mean, Georgetown has to know that they are one of the last schools out there to give out transfer decisions, so I don’t think it would be unreasonable to ask for an early read when it starts getting close to May 1.
And yep! GU is my top pick
@Robinyoursoul $800!!! UMich is only $300! Or maybe $400… But still! Ouch
@Robinyoursoul I just called them right now and they said there’s nothing that I can do and that the decisions will be coming out on June 15. I’m going to email them though about an expedited decision because I don’t think that’s right since their site says decisions come out late May/early June (if I remember correctly).
@phillysteak June 15?! Well, thank you for the information, bud. Hopefully you can get something out of them earlier.
Omg, June 15!?!!?!!!
@Robinyoursoul @lexluther96 I really really don’t think she gave me the right information. I might call again tomorrow to see if I get someone else and ask them but we’ll see. I hope we get our decisions before the GW deadline though!
I must of just talked to the exact same person. A student who didn’t even tell us the right date listed on the website. Gonna see if I can find someone to email
If i were you, i would pay the fees to GW and go there at least you have something in hand, but what about if you didn"t get into georgetown? You will lose both, so my advice is to go ah ad and pay the fees and go to the GW. The same thing for everyone who has the same case with another schools
Thanks
Georgetown is not an IVY LEAGUE school so don"t stress yiurself guys if u have another options/admissions go ahead
Thanks for looking into it!
