Hi everyone! I’m a rising senior (class of 2018) and after touring GU this spring, I completely fell in love!! As of right now, I gave an unweighted GPA of 4.0 (weighted 4.421), SAT score of 1430, ACT score of 34, and SAT II scores of 750 Math 2, 720 Biology M, 640 US History. I am the president of a writing enrichment program for middle schoolers that I helped start sophomore year, as well as president of my school’s Help the Homeless fund, secretary of the Student Government, Editor of Key Club, business manager of the school yearbook, and a member of NHS. I volunteer frequently for my city’s Science Museum (over 100 hours), and participate in many other volunteer projects through NHS, Student Government, and Key Club. In addition, I am a certified member of the Youth Services Citizens Board (a city funded council to aid youth programs). Do you think I would have a chance at Georgetown?
I’d say you have a very good chance. Both my students got into Gtown. A large percent of students do Community Service there. I’d say focus on your essays now. It’s not too early to start drafting and get some help by seeking feedback. Good luck!
