which site/platform can you find a report of your credit history?
I used Experian but you could use Transunion or the other one I am forgetting. It is free so don't pay for it!

Experian is fantastic!
You still need have a credit report stating that. Like everyone has said Experian and transunion are good and free for 1 report yearly. Also note that this is different from a credit score. Hope that helps

If I submitted my FAFSA like last week (and Georgetown says by Jan 1 lol) y’all think I’ll be fine?

i submitted mid to late january i believe and i was wondering the same thing
I submitted recently too. It says it takes 3-5 days to process online so I think we should be alright.

You’d think that lagging this hard on decisions would definitely affect their yield
I wonder if that's intentional. If they over-interviewed and accepted too early in the cycle that might be an easy way for candidates to self-select out.

do you think late january interviewees will have a chance for acceptance given that they were the last group to be interviewed? i really hope so :/

They invited you to interview because they thought you would do well in the program.
I think they were asking because for some schools, interviewing at the end of the season means that you are interviewing for a WL spot.
@wegotthis20201234 on the past threads, people who interviewed in Jan got As so I don't see why that couldn't happen this year!

Just got accepted off of the waitlist!! Interviewed on 9/09, last name C.
Such a rush; this school would be incredible. Deciding between 1 other school, but I will try to decide quickly for the rest of you on the WL, I know the waiting is the worst.
Wishing the absolute best to everyone 😀 you can dm if I missed anyother info

Yep, around 7pm ET!
This WL A wave matches up pretty much the same with last years, which came Feb. 25. Looks like the next one will come in about a month's time. 
Random Q for my WL heroes: did any of you guys send a LOI or any sort of other communication between being waitlisted and now?
Any mid november interviewers hear back yet?
Just got put on the waitlist. Interviewed mid November l, but actually gonna decline the waitlist spot
Best of luck to you all!
Best of luck to you all!
Yeah I sent in 2 letter of interests/update letters. One about 2 weeks after my WL decision in December and then one on 1/25.
Last name Z

Do they usually send out WL waves before Nov/Dec interview decisions?? Don’t seem right to me haha

WL; interviewed 12/1
Was told that I would be an "amazing fit" for Georgetown by my interviewer.
NGL, I am kind of devastated. This was my only MD interview (2 DOs: 1 WL, 1 affective WL) and last real chance this year at an acceptance, but I loved everything about this school and felt like out of all the schools I applied to, this was the only one that really actually resonated with me perfectly and it also happened to fit exactly what I was looking for (location, size, programs, etc). I know a WL isn't a death sentence and it's not over until it's over, but man, this is crushing after such a long wait.

Welp, I interviewed 12/8 and am bracing myself for a WL or R. It seems like the acceptance wave was yesterday.
statistically, looks like they have the lowest post II acceptance rate along with GW. waitlist movement seems to be good here (despite Georgetown not releasing any number to MSAR) from an anecodtal basis. have some faith! hoping it works out for you
I feel your pain, friend. The decisions that are made behind closed doors that separate an outright acceptance from a WL are arguably the most mystifying part of the entire application process - it's particularly frustrating when you hear such positive feedback from your interviewer (I was under the impression the the interview here carries a lot of weight in the final decision process but who knows how Georgetown actually operates).
Happy to chat in PMs if you need to vent or just someone to sympathize with - hang in there.

orrrrrrrr, (i interviewed 12/10), we catch the next A wave in the following weeks since it seems like no one has received a decision during our week🙂
