I applied EA to SFS, got deferred and just got the waitlist letter today. I wonder if it's even worth staying on the waitlist considering that Georgetown has accepted very few people from it in the past years. =[

Rejected in Maine (deferred EA)
I probably would be upset right now since Georgetown was my top choice throughout the college process, except that I have my lovely, HUGE Duke acceptance packet in front of me right now, and Duke has slowly grown on me over the past few months. GO BLUE DEVILS! (Unless, of course, I miraculously am accepted by Princeton on Monday)

Stats if you care: 1480/2230, top 10%, GPA 99.5/100, plus a pretty impressive/unique hook if I do say so myself. Oh well...
