I called the office of admissions today and they said that as soon as they review your app they send a decision email. They also said that they don't send batches of rejections so if your app says under review and you don't have a decision yet it probably hasn't been reviewed yet.

You da real MVP.

Hmm this seems weird to me... Has anyone received any sort of decision email other than an II? They don't appear to have any sort of "hold" status, so what is happening with all the apps that they are reviewing and not giving an II to?
 
Not to jinx myself, but i was complete 7/9 and it still says im under review. I could be receiving a rejection momentarily or...

I got the rejection email too. Oh well. Complete July 9. Good luck to everyone still waiting on a decision!
 
Nope, just got a rejection letter. Not completely bummed though, just remembering the painstaking hours of writing that long a** why Georgetown essay.

+1 rejection and I feel exactly the same way. Complete 7/12, LizzyM ~71. So glad I got a II before any rejections, or else I would be feeling much worse.
 
Second rejection this morning, complete 7/6. This one honestly doesn't hurt either, cuz I didn't see Georgetown as a great fit. Good luck to the rest of you!
 
Rejected, but honestly pretty happy for it. GT was a compromise application for me, since my prehealth advisor suggested it. But it didn't fit.

LizzyM 73.7
 
Looks like them rejections have started to come. Got mine this morning. Hurts that there are no other II either. Just got to wait it out I guess. 🙁

LizzyM 74.6

Sorry for posting this a third time, why is it that people completed after me have gotten II's and now people today have been rejected but my portal says im still under review??
 
I was also complete 7/9 and have not heard anything. Definitely happy I have not gotten a rejection yet, but I am still confused as to why i haven't heard anything from them yet.
 
Same boat, i dont think were getting our answers from this forum lol

Rejected today, complete 7/13, ~69 LizzyM score. Honestly didn't think Georgetown was a great fit, but still disappointed to get a straight rejection so early. Oh well!

I would love to know this as well. Complete 7/9. No word. Maybe its a good sign since people after us got rejected. Kinda like a hold?

Idk if its a hold or what, but im holding out hope for an II sooner rather than later, maybe our Rejections are just taking a little longer who the heck knows
 
I don't know if Gtown is actually rolling. There's no info on this other than the MD/PhD NOT being rolling
