What impressed you positively?

I really enjoyed Mrs. Sullivan's presentation. She was honest about the school and was enjoyable to listen to. I also LOVE the city and the new advocacy program that Georgetown has started.

What impressed you negatively?

My suitcase barely fit on the GUTS bus. Really, nothing, I love this school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

You can keep your bags in the fishbowl. The day is long and mostly spent in the fishbowl. I wish I had brought a soda or something to perk me up a bit before the interview at the end of the day.

What are your general comments?

I may be biased because this has been my first choice school all during the process. The students all had great things to say about the school and were able to answer all of our questions. My interview was one-on-one, closed file, with a doctor who graduated from Georgetwon and now works at an affiliated hospital. It was nice to have the opportunity to ask her questions about the school. Make sure that you leave some time to explore DC.
