How did you prepare for the interview?

Browsed the website, read up in the journals. Interview took place during the Terri Shiavo trial so I spent extra time boning up on patients rights and advanced directive stuff.

What impressed you positively?

Georgetown is off the hook!! It is an incredible town with everything from small local pubs to upscale boutiques. Being from California I felt that the town was mainstreet USA meets Union Square in San Francisco.

What impressed you negatively?

Georgetown is sooo expensive to live in. Students either live eight to a three bedroom rowhouse or commute from across the river in Virginia.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the interviews were basically closed file. I was handed an envelope that contained basic info from my app and told to give it to the interviewer who looked it over briefly before asking "canned" questions.

What are your general comments?

Georgetown is a good school in a great area but fails to distinguish itself from the private school heap. Could have been any school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
