What impressed you positively?

The school really cares about the individual student and the community. They stress compassion and volunteerism. All the students I met also seemed really happy there.

What impressed you negatively?

There was only about 1/2 hour put aside for the student tour. I barely got to see the campus or the hospital. I only viewed the basement where most of the classes took place.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was told that out of each interview round, they only accepted 15 out of 75 applicants. I was a little turned off by this because since I had such an early interview, many of the candidates in my group were exceptional. I would hope that Georgetown chooses people based on their backgrounds and not because they have a set number they abide by. Also, my interview was closed file. Since I do have varying experiences, I was hoping that my interviewer would have asked more in depth questions to get to know me and get a feel for my motivations. Instead, I found myself volunteering a lot of my information.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I think Georgetown is an excellent school and I would love to go there. I was very relaxed throughout the day. The information sessions were actually informative. Mrs. Sullivan really got down to what Georgetown represents and if you are the right candidate for Georgetown.
