<p>I applied for transfer admission at Georgetown University. I know it's very hard to be admitted as a transfer student. However, I just received an email about an alumni interview in my area. I'm asked to contact him to set it up. I don't want to be very hoped up, but really wondering if this is a sign that I'm on the right path. I'm thinking that the admission committee is considering my candidacy after first review. Any idea about this?</p>
<p>According to the Gt website, alumni interviews are optional for transfers:</p>

<p>There’s no indication that the the offering of an alumni interview indicates your likelihood of admission in any way.</p>
<p>i got one too and I’m definitely not a top applicant. i think it’s based more on geography rather than qualifications. that’s how interviews usually work, but hey here’s to hoping.</p>
