**Official Georgetown University Transfer Thread 2009**

<p>For those of you who emailed how long did it take before you heard back? I emailed a few days ago and haven’t heard anything yet, I suspect they get hundreds of emails a day asking the same question so I’m not surprised, just curious.</p>

<p>leah emailed me back in less than 2 hours…</p>

<p>weird, leah always takes about a day and a half until i get her response</p>

<p>Are there any MSB transfers that have heard anything yet?</p>

<p>I’m still waiting on the college but I know two MSB transfers from my school that have already gotten in.</p>

<p>For those of you who emailed Leah, what school are you applying to?</p>

<p>I sent an email to someone named Meg and haven’t heard anything yet</p>

<p>I sent in my application online like 5 minutes before it was due. Will I be one of the last ones to get my letter?</p>

<p>no mail from msb today :(</p>

<p>Also here’s another bump for the transfer chat room if anyone has questions to bounce off other applicants.</p>

<p>I was accepted to MSB on monday (small envelope). I just finished my freshman year at Emory with a 3.5 GPA. I was deferred EA then waitlisted last spring. My SAT was a 2100 and I went to a CT prep school.</p>

<p>Hey, if you dont mind, do me a favor by leaving me some advice on my decision. The thread is below</p>

<p>For SFS, I emailed Kamileh Holder</p>

<p>^and she told you to wait till the 10th, right?</p>

<p>She told me on April 20th because I had to make a decision on an admissions deposit by the 23rd. I put down a deposit at Emory, but I may withdraw it and enroll at GT</p>

<p>eih5, did you have any area of your application that you felt separated you from the competition? Some kind of extracurricular or something else? I’m assuming you aren’t a URM…</p>

<p>I have been heavily involved in Interfaith Dialogue. I was on the board of Session: Middle East, a forum for discussion of the Israeli-Arab Conflict between Jews and Muslims. As a Jewish Student, I won awards participating in Model Arab League. Academically, I am studying both Hebrew and Arabic, and participated in the Arabic Learning Community. Mostly, I tied all of this together by explaining how my experience as a refugee during the Second Lebanon War motivates me to study Internation Relations.</p>

<p>I hope this is some help</p>

<p>I e-mailed asking for an early notification.
Official decisions for the College should be coming out next week.
:)</p>

<p>Leah Thomas emailed me back today.
I got ze waitlist.
But it ain’t no thang, I already have a tough call between UNC and UVA
Best of luck to everyone!</p>

<p>i didnt know they were waitlisting transfers? The wait cant be too long i would think but still a little ridiculous considering how late it is in the year</p>

<p>Anyone hear today?</p>
