The dumbest reason you want to go to Georgetown....

<p>GUGS!
My interviewer raved on and on about it so now it’s been completely entrenched into my miind.</p>

<p>esgee… I just want to see these mythological things!</p>

<p>if i get in, i’ll bother looking up what the heck a hoya is…</p>

<p>if not (more likely situation at the moment seeing as i’m interview-less), i really don’t care anymore, gahh!!!</p>

<p>Georgetown Cupcake</p>

<p>Asci09, Georgetown Cupcake is the best! I’m with you on that one!</p>

<p>pswib, are you from dc area?</p>

<p>Sorry hopefulhoya, I just called a friend of mine who does MUN and he has no idea. We quickly got off topic and chatted for an hour. So, I still have no idea. I think I’ll just take another random guess. </p>

<p>You go to Fowler! :-P</p>

<p>nope… West Genny ;)</p>

<p>Cool! I know the Probable Valedictorian of West Genny. Y’know I’ve always wanted to do MUN, but I’ve got too much of an attachment to all my musical groups. It sounds like a lot of fun.</p>

<p>No, I live in southern Louisiana, but I’ve spent almost three weeks in DC since January, so I have a good idea about some of the “places” around there.</p>

<p>I remember when I applied, I kept my class rank a secret so people wouldn’t expect me to get into certain places and I went on and on about how much I wanted to go to UVA, which was my safety school and I knew I would get in, so that way if I didn’t get into Georgetown no one would know. Yeah, I was kind of paranoid.</p>

<p>To pswib:</p>

<p>You are so right. Nobody goes out of state from here. I guess it’s the lure of TOPS.</p>

<p>My son loves DC as well. Did NSLC, and we did family vacation there earlier in the summer.</p>

<p>Hope to look at Catholic. He’s a junior. He goes to a Jesuit school, so Georgetown is a big deal. </p>

<p>Good luck with your admit. Have friends whose sons go to GT, and they love it.</p>

<p>Montegut, are you, if you don’t mind my asking, from Montegut in lower Terrebonne Parish? If so, I’m right next door in St. Mary Parish! Does your son go to Jesuit in N.O.?</p>

<p>Dumbest reason for going? Bill Clinton went there. </p>

<p>Dumbest reason why I don’t want to go? twofold. (i’m highly critical of everything. lol)<br>

  1. Campus is too small
  2. The pictures that a friend, GU 2012, posts on his facebook make the school look EXTREMELY preppy and into hard liquor. I know it’s anecdotal, but because it’s the only window i have into the student body it makes me worried.</p>

<p>Oh, and the people talking about which school they go to, are you listing prep schools? I have no knowledge about elite prep school. that’s a public school kid from the midwest for you…</p>

<p>If I get into Georgetown, I feel like I’ll be able to definitely get into any of my other schools, seeing as Georgetown is my greatest reach… That’s my dumbest reason =)</p>

<p>I like their letter head.</p>

<p>Dumbest reason:</p>

<p>They have a cute mascot, Jack. He does slobber a bit too much though…</p>

<p>^^Sunshine that is not a dumb reason at all, he’s SOOO cute haha.</p>

<p>Ummm… its a catholic school</p>

<p>Im a pseudo-convert (baptized Catholic, 1st Communion, never practiced, became New Age, and then did RCIA)</p>

<p>and</p>

<p>I</p>

<p>Really</p>

<p>Like</p>

<p>Being</p>

<p>Catholic</p>

<p>SO…</p>

<p>Georgetown, being the “Catholic Ivy,” is a natural choice</p>

<p>Plus, i wanna be like, “Where do you go to college? aww, that’s too bad, cause I go to Georgetown”</p>

<p>to be able to perform in Rangila and various other cultural shows that they put on</p>
