This might be a dumb question, but when you submit your post-waitlist letter of interest, does your text box page still look the same and it allows you to edit the text even after you press submit?

I interviewed on 1/10 does it make sense to send an update letter about an abstract and poster presentation + oral presentation that I will be doing

Update once they are all done

once what is done?

 

[pedneuro6894]

You said the presentations you will* be doing, update once you have actually done them. Has your abstract been submitted yet?

My abstract has been submitted. The presentation is at the end of March so I feel like the committee will have already reviewed my application by then?

Okay that def changes things. It could warrant an update, and Georgetown is really friendly of updates, so I don't see a problem with submitting one.

 

[randomusername614]

Where in the portal can updates be submitted? I can't find the tab. I assume "Post Submission" but my portal says "Sorry - the post submission form is now closed." Can I no longer submit updates? That seems odd being that it is only the middle of December, but I could be wrong

Same thing happened to me

is georgetown generous with financial aid?

 

[pedneuro6894]

is georgetown generous with financial aid?

No. They don’t offer any merit based aid and are quite limited in need-based. It even says it on their website

 

[LeafyGreeen]

Do you guys know when the majority of the waitlist movement will happen? I've been on the waitlist since 12/07/24. J curious!

 

[solarflare1230]

Can someone explain the post-II timeline? I interviewed mid November and am wondering when we are supposed to hear back

they send decisions chronologically and they just sent out mid to late october interview decisions

 

[flowerplant2000]

hey, just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on when to best sent out an update letter/letter of interest post interview? maybe in a general sense? and if georgetown is a bit different, is there a different timeline to follow? from what ive seen, they like to see students interest

 

[roadtomd1]

When are we thinking the next round of decisions/ waitlist decisions coming out? It's been relatively quiet here for a while.

+1 pre II R

This might be a dumb question but I’m just making sure- I already filled out FAFSA and the questionnaire for GUSOM but i’m looking at CSS and realizing i’m not going to qualify for need based aid i don’t think. If I just don’t submit it I’m still eligible for any merit scholarship in theory (I know they don’t really have any) and loans and everything correct?? It seems like a huge hassle to do CSS for probably no reason

Georgetown doesn’t do merit based aid. I would do the CSS if you can, you never know what will happen

fair enough! but if i didn’t in theory i am still able to get normal federal loans and stuff from fafsa right

I think so

Advice on post-interview pre-decision update letters and letters of interest or intent? I know Georgetown likes to receive these letters, but I am feeling somewhat lost in regards to the timeline. I personally thought letters made more sense and would be more effective when sent if waitlisted. Would not sending a letter while waiting to hear back hurt me in any way, or vice versa? Can a letter with meaningful updates at this point in time possibly turn a R into a WL or A, or a WL to an A?

They accept letters of interest/update post-interview and pre-decision. They don't accept letters of intent pre-decision.

I'm not sure about the rest. Probably sending it sooner than later is good? It takes them roughly 3 months to review applications post-interview.

 

[babaganoosh?]

How do you know they don’t accept letters of intent pre-decision?

Aw congrats! Did you get a call or an email? I'm surprised they released decisions late in the day. Also did you send any post-II letters?

does Georgetown require we update documents on IDOC? I dont see it listed.

I don't think Georgetown requires that we upload documents to IDOC. A few other schools may so they need you to upload those documents and it'll say which schools on your portal.
