<p>I just called NHS and the admissions counselor said NHS doesn’t know whether they’ll be accepting anyone off of the waitlist until Tuesday, May 15th. He said accepted students will receive a letter in the mail.</p>
<p>Perhaps the same goes for SFS.</p>
<p>That’s interesting. Why does it take so long after May 1st I wonder.</p>
<p>As an applicant to the College, I’m starting to assume I didn’t get in. It really is getting too late for it to be a “yes”, and I guess I’m a little relieved that this long application process is almost over. I’ll still have my fingers crossed…good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>@skateme, so does that mean we actually won’t hear back from then until after may 15th? cuz if they’re using snailmail then it will probably take a few days (or a few weeks in my case) to reach us</p>
<p>Guys, they called our counselors today to confirm if we are still interested or not. Letters will be received my next Monday or Tuesday.</p>
<p>Wow that sounds like good news! Also your username is beyond awesome.</p>
<p>wait gtown admissions called all our counselors? why wouldn’t they just call/email us like they did with the previous students who were admitted?</p>
<p>Not sure but in my case, after they called, I called back to confirm that I would go to Georgetown if accepted. And thanks Charchabinx!</p>
<p>I really hope they didn’t call everyone’s counselors… I go to a large public school where the counselor doesn’t really interact with students much. He’s currently under the impression that I’m really excited to go to my current school (which I am!) but probably has no idea that I got waitlisted at Georgetown… 
If they called him, he probably would have no idea what’s going on.</p>
<p>Oh and if they’re notifying everyone on the 15th, I’m guessing they’ll email internationals before we get the snail mail.</p>
<p>@x.sunny yea i don’t think they called everyone’s counselors cuz that seems a little strange. i think badwolf4 was as exception. what school are you planning on going to? all this waiting is driving me crazy! i wouldn’t be surprised if we are still waiting for our letters by the end of the month</p>
<p>I’m currently planning on going to UC Berkeley. I’m getting more and more excited about going there and Georgetown is kind of distant now… I have a feeling they won’t be accepting many/any people off the SFS waitlist Plus I’m also a bit worried that I’m not as interested in international politics as I think I am and I feel like SFS and Georgetown in general doesn’t allow much flexibility. Does anyone else feel that way?</p>
<p>Yeah, I doubt anyone’s counselor was called. How would the counselors know whether we’re still interested or not?</p>
<p>Hey guys! I was (somewhat) accepted off the waitlist for SFS.
I applied early, got deferred, and then wait listed.
The admissions officer called me a few days ago asking if I was still interested in a spot because he wanted to recommend me for acceptance to the admissions/waitlist committee.
We had a back and forth discussion over what this meant, and he said that it would be “more likely than not” that I would get in.</p>
<p>I had to turn it down though because of financial aid (I barely got anything for need based while at other schools I got full rides). It was difficult to tell him that it wouldn’t be possible because Georgetown is my absolute first choice. When I applied, I didn’t think I had the slightest chance.
I was definitely honored to be considered, but money issues are paramount for me.
Yet I’m glad to finally have some closure after nearly 6 months.</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone else! :)</p>
<p>Wow congrats fhm101! You’re the first one of all of us to hear back from SFS 
Good luck at your other school!</p>
<p>At this point, I’m starting to feel like it’s not going to be good news for SFS applicants who haven’t heard back yet :/</p>
<p>@x.sunny don’t give up hope just yet! There’s still time and maybe sfs is will release their notifications on the 15th like nhs is doing</p>
<p>I really hope some people who applied to SFS or NHS who didn’t get calls get an acceptance letter tomorrow or Tuesday :/</p>
<p>Anything on the College? All people seem to be talking about are the other schools…</p>
<p>I’m waiting for news on the College too. No news yet, just hoping for tomorrow or tuesday.</p>
<p>waiting on the college as well :/</p>
