Colleges & Universities Georgetown University

<p>I had posted my stats up here before just asking about admission. The more I narrow my search though, I think I want to major in International Relations. I realize that Georgetown is a stretch, but would my chances of getting in be even harder if I applied to SFS? Any feedback on admission or about SFS is appreciated. Here are my stats:</p>

  • Unweighted GPA: 3.8, Weighted GPA: 4.0
  • All honors classes along with AP US 2
  • Next year: Gov., Spanish V, AP Eng, AP Euro, AP Calc.
  • SAT: Math-680, Verbal-670, Writing-700</p>

  • Guitarist in jazz band as well as indie band which released a full-length cd and has played countless benefit/charity events
  • Junior Class President (Hopefully Senior too)

<p>Well being class President well definitely help. However, Gtown SFS is definitely a reach for you. Your SATs will be in the lower 25%. What’s your class rank? I don’t mean to scare you, but someone on this board said that 40% of the applicants accepted to SFS were ranked 1, 2, or 3 in their class.</p>

<p>aha! so it is true that sfs is the hardest to get into, including gtown!</p>

<p>sorry. somebody mentioned in the other post that gtown was harder to get into than sfs =]</p>

<p>You might as well apply and let the admissions committee decide. Also, apply to the school you want to go to, not whichever you think is “easier.”</p>
