What are your general comments?

This whole day was amazing, and Georgetown made the top of my list. Everyone mentions Mrs Sullivan's speech here, and there's a reason. She really clears up a lot of issues, and does her best to find any answers she doesn't know. Everyone in admissions does there best to make you feel welcomed, and the students stop you to ask you how you like it and wish you luck. Very comfortable here.
