<p>yes don’t kid yourself into thinking that being a minority is not a hook. At georgetown it is THE hook</p>
<p>Not true, I was deferred as a Hispanic with stats that for the most part indicate I am well within the range of being accepted. Granted, there are likely other factors to my deferral, but a “hook” certainly does not excuse them.</p>
<p>Ditto^^ I was deferred and I’m Indian. My stats were above average for Georgetown but being a URM didn’t help me out.</p>
<p>you were accepted and you cant spell deferred?</p>

<p>I failed my life.</p>
<p>I’ve no idea how the GT admission works. I got into both UChicago and MIT and got DEFERRED from GT. Haha, funny.</p>
<p>Was Georgetown your first choice?</p>
<p>It’s my third choice.</p>
<p>Then why do you say you’ve failed your life? You are accepted into two other amazing schools! Life is good.</p>
<p>Yes, life is good after I found out I got accepted by MIT!</p>
<p>MIT, Chicago, Georgetown-You aren’t going to college for the football.</p>
<p>wow EdwardJ, deferred at Georgetown and accepted at MIT?? congrats on MIT! haha this college admissions process really is unpredictable!</p>
<p>I don’t find it that surprising at all. It’s all about being a good “fit”. MIT and Georgetown are worlds apart, and I suppose the admissions process recognized this. I hope you appreciate MIT!</p>
<p>^ I suppose that is true. But I still found it surprising^^</p>
<p>I guess it’s because there are more space for me to really show my world on the MIT app. Sometimes more essay requirement is better.</p>

<p>Hey guys!
I’m new to CC and I was just wondering if any of you could help me out.</p>
<p>I was deferred EA at GU this December and I’ve been thinking about what the next steps would be for me. I read about this “letter of intention” that some people were talking about. Is there an actual form that one can download to do this or is it really just a letter addressed to the admissions office?</p>
<p>Also, for the letter, what kinds of things have people notified GU of besides mid-year grades and scores (I’m done with all of my standardized testing)?</p>
<p>Let me know what you think my chances are of getting in RD, please.
