Georgetown Regular Acceptance Notification

Hi. I know that GU acceptances will be released on or by April 1. Does anyone know if responses came before the date last year or in prior years? I am wondering if we still have to wait a couple of weeks…

According to an article in today’s Hoya, “The Office of Undergraduate Admissions plans to send out decisions for the regular decision cycle beginning the week of March 27 for applicants to receive their letters by April 1.” http://www.thehoya.com/class-of-2021-application-rate-increases-to-all-time-high/

This article also reports two additional items that may be of interest to RD applicants:

  1. "After receiving a record number of total applicants for this year’s application cycle, Georgetown’s admissions department anticipates accepting about 15 percent of 21,459 regular decision applicants to the Class of 2021, down from last year’s acceptance rate of 16.4 percent."
  2. "[T]he average critical reading score and math score for the applicant pool rose by about 16 points, translating to a more competitive applicant pool."

Good luck!

thank you.
