<p>OP - one more question to ask yourself:
What happens if you go to AU and can’t transfer to Georgetown? As with freshman admissions, transfer admissions (with some exceptions that are not relevant here) are not guaranteed. At some schools, it may be harder transfer, since there is no specific number of transfers that they can accept from year to year.</p>
<p>You should select the school you would be happy at for 4 years if the transfer doesn’t work out. Then you can decide if you want to spend your freshman year working on a transfer.</p>
