The blood flows from the halls of Georgetown, as applicant after applicant is culled. When will the bloodshed end? :nailbiting:

Rejected today. Thought I hit all of their "competitive" standards, but oh well. Good luck to all!
 
Did you guys receive an email or did you have to check the status? I completed mine 7/21 and still under review...
 
Rejected today. Complete July 20th. Pretty bummed since I live in DC and have ties to the school/hospital.

Has the bloodbath of rejections ended temporarily? Only asking because it seemed to have ended right before my completion date (early August)

And finally submitted this secondary. Honestly I don't see the point, but the only thing for certain is I will definitely not get in if I don't apply.

I’ve seen ppl from early August get rejected on here. Think you can safely say you made it through a couple of rounds.

It appears the bloodbath is over, and the adcom gods are now rewarding the congregation with IIs. Stoked to have a reason to visit DC tho.

I was recently offered an interview invite from George Washington. Nevertheless, Georgetown is one of my top choices given its unique tracks and commitment to service. Is it worth sending an "In the Area" email to Georgetown letting them know that I will be in DC (I'm from the West Coast) within the timeframe of my GW interview. Or are these "In the Area" emails typically perceived badly..? Any input would be appreciated!

Call the admissions office and find out! I am in a similar situation with NYC schools, so I am sending them to any that are open to them.

So just first call admissions office and ask if they are receptive to "In the Area" notices? Would it jeopardize my chances if I mention that I have an interview at another school in DC and would love to save the travel costs? Or does bringing up my GW interview show a lack of sincerity to Georgetown?

Na haha they won’t penalize you for applying to multiple schools. I wouldn’t say specifically what school, but saying you’re traveling for an interview would be fine. If you’re unsure you could just leave out the fact that you’re traveling for interviews, but I really don’t think it matters.
 
Interviewed mid-sept should I expect to hear back soon?
 
II a few days ago! Complete at the end of July

I submitted my secondary 9/8 and still haven't heard back at all...is this a good or bad thing???
 
For those of you who interviewed early on, I checked with them and they said it really does take a full 8-10 weeks to get back to us, so don't be flustered because you might not hear until the end of October- early November!

Silence from almost all schools from 7/27-8/15. GT on 8/3 and nada.
 
Looking at my emails, all I see is "Lyft™ $500 Bonus." Maybe I will have a great career with Lyft, hear nothing from Georgetown.

Accepted today, 10/17 on 10:18 AM Eastern time. I've never been so grateful in my life. I fell in love with the campus the minute I stepped foot on it, and it seems like a dream come true. Admissions is not about metrics, and I can testify to that firsthand. It is about finding a mutual fit between you and the School of Medicine you will eventually enroll in. "Hoya Saxa!"
