<p>I was offered a spot on the extended waitlist at Georgetown, so as of now I'm going George Washington. Should I say on the extended waitlist b/c it will look better if I want to transfer after freshman year? Has anyone had any experience with transfering? Is it a hard social transition? Do you feel like a 2nd class citizen? The reason I might transfer is that I absolutely love Gtown's Culture and Politics major in SFS. I might not find out about the extended waitlist until june 30th. I kinda wish this whole process was over. Plus, I got $15,000 in merit aid from GW, and will get nothing from Gtown, so I could save a little money my freshman year. Any thoughts?</p>
<p>if you really want Gtown: stay on the list, write letters, cross fingers, apply for transfer next year, get a GPA over a 3.8 at GW, make friends with prof, start at Gtown your soph year.</p>
<p>any other people have any other advice/experiences to offer?
i'd like to get a tiny bit of a consensus, but I know that's unlikely on a voluntary blog like this...
anything would be appreciated!</p>
<p>Though you might still feel like you belong at Gtown, I urge you to give GW a fair chance while you're there. If you still have the same feelings at the end of next year, go ahead and apply transfer, but don't put GW out of your mind because of some superiority complex about Gtown. You shouldn't miss out on a great experience because you were worried about Gtown.</p>
<p>i am actually excited for gw, in fact i'm really excited about the project exploration pre-orientation thing. I def won't go into gw with a negative attitude...</p>
<p>That's great to hear. Good luck!!</p>
