@doubledamn I want to go into politics though and SFS at Georgetown is comparable to all the top poly sci programs in the nation. It’d be a tough choice because I feel like Rice has a better college experience but at the same time DC is my favorite city and Georgetown has everything I’m looking for in a college. So idk a visit to both would be in order.
@soccerboy10 I see your point. Maybe Gtown for grad school then? Georgetown seems a little pre professional undergrad (in the political/international relations sense) than Rice. While both would no doubt give you an awesome education, if you’re into the “college experience” I think Rice would be the better choice; not to mention probably cheaper too!
I hope you have a great four years wherever you end up
Did anyone from international make the waitlist?
@saltana I didn’t make it. Based on what I’ve heard, if you’re international and asking for aid then you don’t have a chance.
@doubledamn yeah it’d be a hard choice definitely. Rice seems to have an incredible undergrad experience and the campus is gorgeous. DC is my favorite city and SFS at Georgetown is matched only by Harvard poly sci so I’d have to visit. I hope you enjoy your four years too! Where are you going?
@smilyowl I am international with no aid need but I didn’t get off the wait list either.
@doubledamn Hey I saw that you were on the wait list for Hamilton too. Did you receive an email from them today saying there might be a few spots left? They also asked if I was still interested.
Anyone else still waiting?
Guys, there’s still hope - I got a call four hours ago telling me that I got off the waitlist!
Wow! Which state are you from? Are you going?
interesting that they are still taking kids off the list (and good too!) Is it the extended wait list?
Congrats @gewrgioc! Is your offer to start this fall or do they want you to take a gap year?
@nan666 I’m from Pennsylvania, and yes I am! @SouthernHope I think so? I’m not sure. @2020vision2020 the offer is for me to start this fall.
Thanks for replying. Which major did you apply for? And how much time did they give you to accept the offer?
@gewrgioc weird question, but are you a boy or girl?
Anyone else from the wait list get a message last week asking if they were still interested because they’re making selections for the fall off the wait list??
@khysimp was that via email?
@williams2019 yes, it was.
Did you hear anything after that
I’m in the same boat. What did you end up doing?
