Congrats musicalscientists! What was your interview date?? How many updates had you sent?
Congrats musicalscientists! What was your interview date?? How many updates had you sent?
If you don't mind me asking, how long ago did you send the last update? I just don't know how to best time mine...I interviewed 8/24 -- the very first date available for the cycle. I was waitlisted on October 17th or 18th. I sent in 3 updates with content referring to a job promotion, updated service and clinical experience (found a GT doc to shadow!), how I can uniquely contribute to the school, and how I fit the profile of a GT student. Somewhat easy for me to elaborate on my reasons for wanting to go to GT because I went to two Jesuit schools. I'm also a nontraditional student, graduating with a Master's in 2013. I was pretty set on GT from the get go 😛

You can submit 5 total, so subtract the ones you've submitted from 5, and plan June 15 to be your deadline (assuming the class is usually filled by then). So that gives us 3 months to submit, say, 3 letters. One every month... at least that's what I'm going to do.

Damn Georgetown and your update emails
This looks good, but realize the heading states "2012-2016 matches!"Georgetown killed it in the match! Make sure to check out the 2016 residency posting. https://som.georgetown.edu/prospectivestudents/degrees/md/matchplacement
12 Ortho and 31 Anesthesiology?!
Yes, I see the breakdown now! Thanks!Yep, that is definitely what the website says- and I did a favor by counting the Ortho and Anesthesiology matches for 2016. My count might be off +/- one, but you are welcome.
Prayer is key---all credit/congrats/appreciation to God to making it possible!!I was accepted right before noon today! Received a phone call from Dean Mitchell and received the email a couple hours afterwards!!! I interviewed January 28th. This is hands down my top choice school! Good luck to everyone else!!

I did the FASFA already but do waitlisted folks need to do the GT form as well?
Pulled this off the FAQs:I did the FASFA already but do waitlisted folks need to do the GT form as well?
How much longer do we have to wait......ugghhh...
why is that
why is that
according to last years, it seems like people had been getting accepted off the waitlist since March
Well that sucks for us.I called them about a week and a half ago and they said that there has already been a handful of people who got off the waitlist and there is a dynamic move so far.
I don't think that sucks. We now know there's movement and that people are getting in prior to the deadline for holding multiple acceptances. SDN is just a small population of applicants. I'm sure some of us will get the acceptance when the right time comes.Well that sucks for us.

Anyone know when these packages go out? Also April 30th?I'm sure there will be some movement after financial aid packages go out...
Anyone know when these packages go out? Also April 30th?
I sure hope so! I was waiting on financial aid to help decide between two schools and then I found out the other school most likely won't release them until June.:-/ Here's to hoping the Georgetown package helps me decide on its own!Someone on the fb group said they called to ask and they said packages were hopefully coming this week
