<p>Good SATs and being from Georgia might help a little, but relatively low gpa, and not a super high class rank (not bad at all tho). I'm going to be honest, I would not be surprised if you were rejected, but you definitely could get in.</p>

3

<p>common guys, give me some help (feedbackkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk)</p>

<p>I would say Georgetown is a reach for you. My stats, as well as many other EA applicants, were much higher then yours and I was deferred. Your class rank is fairly low and your class load not that difficult, unless that is all the honors/AP classes your school offers.</p>

5

<p>If you want my honest opinion, I'm from Marietta GA, taking all IB and AP classes all 4 years of HS w/ a higher rank and scores, and I got deferred EA, but at this point, I'm thinking college admissions are more luck than anything else!</p>

6

<p>Ditto on the higher stats/rank/ecs and getting deferred bit.</p>

7

<p>Gtown is one of those schools that is harder to get in Early, so I think you have a shot RD</p>

8

<p>sophomore12, i really really hope you are right!</p>

9

<p>Is that true -- Harder to get into Georgetown through EA than RD?</p>

<p>I would REALLY love to get into Georgetown!</p>

10

<p>Is it really harder to get in early?</p>

<p>That is brilliant news for me. I want to apply to Georgetown, but want to apply to Yale or Brown as well, and early would help me a lot there, and if for Georgetown it's better to apply regular, that frees me up a lot. On that note, can anyone rate my chances of getting in (thread is here on the first page, but I've only gotten one reply so far)? Please?</p>

11

<p>It's not necessarily better to apply regular decision, but it is easier to get in later because they end up accepting people they originally deferred.</p>

12

<p>Oh, that's fun. =)</p>

13

<p>The stats early and regular are pretty much the same: 22% acceptance. It's incredibly hard early and regular.</p>

14

<p>Yes, it is incredibly hard. But if the stats are the same, it makes no sense to waste your one EA/ED shot for the sake of getting better chances, unless Georgetown is your absolute dream school.</p>
