This is so unprofessional lol Georgetown needs to get their schedule together. They keep on pushing back the date

 

[citymedhopeful]

Georgetown when I ask about Sarah Stewart:

 

[viszlaking]

Has anyone else called the fin aid office and not got a response or call back?

Missed the March 1st finaid app deadline. I’ve been calling them all day the past 2 days with no response.

 

[maybemd21]

I would email. Idk about them specifically, but a lot of offices are still remote

Same.... literally same. Accepted April 12. Saw the March 1 deadline. Filed out the paperwork anyway, emailed them and left voice mail. No response and 3 days from PTE.

Withdrew that acceptance. Good luck!!

 

[citymedhopeful]

Same withdrawing and good luck!

 

[viszlaking]

I’m still not 100 percent sure. Are preclinical just p/f or honors/p/f?

 

[ohshizmyquad]

You guys think there will be more WL movement for gtown or nah?

 

[Chromatica]

I think so. We haven't even reached the April 30th commit date. There is bound to be at least some, if not the majority, of waitlist movement after that date.

 

[guhoyas2025]

I’m still not 100 percent sure. Are preclinical just p/f or honors/p/f?

Preclinical are all P/F. The clinical are honors/High pass/pass/fail

 

[viszlaking]

Preclinical are all P/F. The clinical are honors/High pass/pass/fail

Oh that’s awesome. The clinical grading scheme is standard so I don’t mind, but the preclinical being p/f is great!

 

[citymedhopeful]

I think so, seems like a lot of people were waiting for sarah stewart notification they said a record amount of people applied so I imagine many will drop if they didn't get it

 

[AramisPorthosAthos]

Just withdrew my acceptance! Best of luck to you all!! 🙂 🙂

 

[absolute_lad]

why are there so many withdraws am I missing something about gtown?? Is it always like this?

Not particularly surprising as we're coming up on the 4/30 reduction to one school. Georgetown, while a great school, does have significant disadvantages in terms of cost and minor disadvantages in terms of prestige, so it's not unexpected that there will be a wave of withdrawals when people are forced to choose between GT and another school.

 

[ohshizmyquad]

Am I mean for being happy that people are withdrawing? As someone with 0 A's at this point, WL is my only hope haha

Its not mean to root for yourself!! If people are withdrawing its usually for what they feel is a better fit for them, so its agood thing for everyone involved.

 

[breezys16]

Withdrew my acceptance. My heart aches but I cannot justify the cost! Best of luck to those on the waitlist 🙂

 

[magged]

Anyone else get a call from Dean Lee Jones stating they're getting an increase in aid? I just did but the connection was quite bad and all I made out was I'm getting an increased $10000 and I'm not sure why but it seemed to be part of a program?

oh I didn’t but hopefully that comes! Did you already PTE?

 

[magged]

No I didn't PTE. I sent them an email for clarification because I don't see the updated award on the portal.

 

[deleted1041819]

Withdrew my A. Good luck all.

 

[MRyan589]

Withdrawing that A today- best of luck everyone, salute to all of you on this next chapter!

 

[wiofthetiger1]

Withdrew my A here! Best of luck everyone!

 

[magged]

Withdrawing. Hopefully this spot goes to one of you on the waitlist!

 

[ohshizmyquad]

Good luck to all the WL peeps today!

 

[wegotthis20201234]

Good luck to all the WL peeps today!

ah are they taking people off the waitlist starting today?

 

[viszlaking]

ah are they taking people off the waitlist starting today?

I think it’s just likely speculation haha

 

[thetenthletter]

Withdrew my WL position, GL to everyone still in the running!

 

[kinAYYYse]

We appreciate u

 

[premed2211999]

Fingers crossed that there's some WL movement coming up here! I went through the thread of previous years, and it seems like there was good movement about a week or so after the April 30th deadline. I wonder how this year will be different taking into account virtual interviews and whatnot...

 

[Caffeinated_premed]

is it worth submitting another LOI at this point?

Was just wondering the same thing. I sent in a Letter of Intent about a week after being WL in February, and Georgetown is still my top choice, but I don't know if they care/if it's worth it to send them another letter saying the exact same thing I said 2 months ago.

What do u have to lose? They explicitly say they give an unlimited amount of submitals.

 

[Chromatica]

Did anyone else just get a waitlist update email?

 

[absolute_lad]

Yeah just about lost my **** then gathered myself again lmao I thought I got rejected

 

[juicemed]

I didn't what does it say?

 

[kinAYYYse]

I didn't what does it say?

It just says that review of WL applicants is ongoing and priority is given to those who have submitted a letter of interest. I remember on past years threads it gets sent in waves to ppl so the email will continue to go out I believe

 

[ohshizmyquad]

Does that mean those who didn’t get it are not considered to be taken off WL as of now?

 

[jbchooch04]

check the application portal under communication status, you probably got it

 

[valanthe]

I am pretty sure it is just an email asking people to withdraw if they would no longer be interested in staying on the waitlist. I don't think it means anything about the status of your application besides that you are currently waitlisted.

 

[ohshizmyquad]

check the application portal under communication status, you probably got it

Thanks hehe, I got it

 

[absolute_lad]

Praying I get that call from Dr. Dugan 🙏 I been answering every single spam call 😩
