<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I'm applying for Georgetown this coming fall and have an interesting resume that leans towards international service, humanitarian efforts overseas, and interfaith/intercultural focus.</p>
<p>I'm also very sure I want to attend med school. I took a class this year at my school called Clinical Rotations which gave me a good taste of medical careers and the hospital environment.</p>
<p>I have been stuck about which school to apply to.</p>
<p>In my opinion, I think I have a reasonable chance at the SFS , based on my extracurriculars. However, I'm also very interested in majoring in International Health in the school of Nursing/Health Sciences.</p>
<p>I shy away from applying to the school of nursing/health sciences basically because there's nothing on my resume that can assert that I like medicine, besides the class I took and my essays.</p>
<p>Help anyoneeeeeeeee? (You can check out my faux-resume under the chances discussion).</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I would go for NHS....it seems your interests really lie in International Health. Especially if your resume suggests a general passion for humanitarian aide and medicine, you have a really good shot at NHS. Plus, if you realize once your at gtown that you prefer majors offered by SFS instead, you can transfer-- a relatively easy process at gtown.</p>
<p>Your transcript doesn't have to suggest it. Just think about it: a high school student doesn't need to be involved in ECs directly correlated to their future vocation. That would be a ridiculous expectation. </p>
<p>And isn't there an essay to explain "Why NHS"? I'm applying to MSB and there is a "Why Business Essay". </p>
<p>Follow your passion, I don't really understand your inhibitions for applying to Nursing.</p>
<p>Kind of a shallow question...which one is easier to get in to?</p>
<p>Admit rates are practically identical.</p>
<p>I am and remains a strong advocate that Georgetown's schools are equal in prestige and stats, but I still have to say Nursing is "slightly" easier to get into. But at the same time, nursing programs around the country are easier to get into than their liberal arts/business/engineering/w.e peers... at the same time, nursing programs have and are improving at an amazing rate... I doubt in the near future, anyone can assess that nursing is easier in any means...</p>
<p>Is everyone forgetting that NHS is more than just nursing? It's nursing and health studies. Its majors in human science and international health and extremely rigorous and prestigious programs within the school.</p>
