First post in here but just wanted to update y'all... Pre-II rejected this morning. LizzyM 68, OOS, good ECs but nothing crazy. Complete early September.

Best of luck to everyone still in the mix!
 
Also waitlisted

The update only allows for five letters, but only in text format

Are people just sending in one big paragraph? Does anyone have any insight on the best way to send updates?

It seems from last years thread they start to pull off the waitlist in February.

Dont mean to be pressing, but does anyone have an answer to this? 😛
 
Does anyone happen to know the percentages... applications, number of invites, number of acceptances?
 
I sent in my secondary early July and was confirmed before August 1st. My application has been on "re-review" for the past 6 months. What do I do! There is no way I could still be on hold is there?
 
So, I'm driving to GT tomorrow for my interview. I'm afraid there's gonna be no parking because it's DC. Anybody have any insight here??

There is hardly any parking around Georgetown especially for a full day unless you want to pay an arm and a leg. My advice would be to get there early and park at Dupont Circle or the Rosslyn metro stations and take the free shuttle to Georgetown!

I uber'ed there, might be a cheaper alternative to parking depending on how far out you are. The surrounding area looks packed with cars, so you might have a hard time. Just a suggestion
 
yeah the hospital is right next to med-dent building so I think parking in the hospital could be smart!
 
I know this is a question that doesn't have a solid answer, but I'm assuming Georgetown gets a lot of waitlist movement throughout the cycle? Especially since the school might be a "backup" for many people? and because they seem to WL so many applicants?

I remember hearing Ms. Sullivan say that if you get waitlisted, they expect you to write monthly letters of intent if you are really interested in attending. Apparently 350 acceptances go out for 200 seats. If you're hellbent on getting an acceptance here, I'd send some strong letters
