<p>waitlisted... no worries... 50% of waitlisted people can still get in.
my major is international health. </p>
<p>im actually not an extremely glamorous applicant: 94.5 gpa, 710 math, 570 (yikes!) verbal, 710 us history, 700 chem, 660 math i, 8 ap's, model un president, numerous key club positions, high leadership skills, 300+ volunteer hours, summer cancer research in boston, fluent/proficient/literate in bengali/spanish/arabic</p>
<p>i decided to apply very last minute. if theres anything i could change, it wouldve been to start the app earlier than the beginning of january, put the app together nicer, visit the school and get to know the students/faculty and do 'early action'. </p>
<p>I was accepted!!!! For those that did get accepted, did u guys receive financial aid included with ur letter? I didn't..and i'm wondering when i'l be able to know.</p>
<p>act- 34
sat- 740cr, 670m, 790w
sat ii- writing 730, math 1c 700, word history 660</p>
<p>gpa- 4.145 weighted (top 10% in very competitve public high school)</p>
<p>i went to a medical program at georgetown 2 years ago during the summer (nylf)</p>
<p>comm service- girl scout gold award and other</p>
<p>recs- supposedly really great!</p>
<p>essays- i thought they were really good</p>
<p>model un president, band treasurer, musical honors society treasurer.. very involved in tennis but not recruited.. varsity captain and all section and play usta tournaments also</p>
<p>i really wanted to go there so it really upset me-- i want to be a health administrator or i wanted to major in international health. my guidance counselor told me i prob didn't get in because they thought that i was just trying to sneak into gtown through the NHS school and then try to transfer to arts&sciences bc nothing in my extracurrics really pointed to me loving medicine. personally, i think it was my sat 2s.. idk. good luck tho</p>
<p>well that makes me feel great that i may have had a better chance if i applied to the arts and science school.. and then maybe i could have transferred. ughh can't go back now. i wish someone warned me about this while i was doing my application.</p>
<p>So you would have rather taken the gamble of applying to a college that you may or may not have gotten into, so that you might have a chance to transfer over to the program that you were really interested in? Doesn't seem to make much sense...but maybe that's just me. I'm sure you'll find yourself at another school that you will also love. Worse case scenario: apply as a transfer to the NHS again next year.</p>
<p>haha i dont really know.. i guess i'm just kinda upset right now which i think is understandable.. but there's no use in thinking about the past so i've moved on and i'm looking at my other favorite schools. georgetown was only one of my favorite schools and i'm already into one (BC honors program) so I'll just be waiting on a couple more. I'm sure i'll be happy wherever I go :) GOod luck to everyone else.</p>
