writing a letter to the admissions office...

<p>i had a good shot to get into georgetown but i messed up qute a bit on my first semester grades for senior year. i was wondering if i could/should send in a letter tomorrow to explain my circumstances and to assure them that i will fix it? has anyone else done that? or is it too late?</p>

<p>thanks..</p>

<p>It's too late, in my opinion. But why not? You have nothing to lose, but do have some potential gain.</p>

<p>it cant hurt, but I dont know how much itll help. I felt really on the cusp sending my deferral letter 2wks ago. Plus, I'm not sure whether or not they would care if you "assure them you will fix it". Unless you have really special circumstances, I don't know how well they'd view that.</p>

<p>The Mid-Year Report should've taken care of that.</p>
