<p>ok king did u get into princeton, dartmouth and stanford too?</p>

<p>and i dont think i ever got a password ill try checking..</p>

<p>this AA thing is rather intriguing.. i dont think i count as a URM because i'm korean living in singapore.. im just an international.
but can someone pls start a thread about AA and explain everything bout it etc..
do all colleges follow AA?</p>

<p>how do we know what our IDs are?</p>

<p>You should have your Georgetown ID from when they acknowledged your application. Your password would be your last four digits from your SS number, unless you're like me (an international - so I have to wait for the post...)</p>

<p>oh i found it. got in (COL)</p>

<p>1590 800x4 SAT IIs economics/physics/history maybe</p>

<p>buncha other stuff</p>

<p>:(
how are u all finding out :(
im sad.. very sad..
i wanna noeeeeeee
so badly</p>

<p>It just says login # and password invalid... I guess I got rejected? :(</p>

<p>but do u actually have a proper password?
if u dont like me.. then... ur ok..
still hope</p>

<p>i hope there is hope for me..</p>

<p>There's still hope. It does take a lot longer for international, but I doubt you're URM because it's usually harder for internationals, and a lot of schools don't even have need-blind admissions for internationals. </p>

<p>The application acknowledgement thing people are talking about, is that the card for contacting your interviewer? That's the only correspondence I ever received from Georgetown.</p>

<p>i dont need fin aid.
and i dont think im considered urm.
i just wanna fricking get in... or at least noe my fate</p>

<p>hm i didnt even get an interview. so i have no idea what that card is. and i cant log into the gaap site either. dont have a password</p>

<p>i found one buried in my email from a while ago</p>

<p>u found what.....</p>

<p>While I'm not sure why I didn't get in, it was expected. Apparently, I screwed up, and my online Profile didn't get sent to the schools. Dartmouth and Pennsylvania asked for me to send it, while Georgetown didn't. Ah, well. It would have been great to go to Georgetown.</p>
