Thank you!!! Seat deposit due July 3rd

To everyone who is getting accepted:

If you need a seat-deposit extension, just ask for it. Joanna was the one emailing me and she gave me a 7 day extension. It may help those in the runnings for other places, or those, like me, who were unable to come up with $1,200 in 7 days lol

Admitted via email this morning (TT 10%)

Seat deposit due July 7.

[markdg90s]

Anything new for today?

[bsktbll28082]

Anyone know when they start pulling from the waitlist?

Admitted this morning top 25 percent t20. Email says no OCI. Doesn't close until next week though so hoping they will let me in

[markdg90s]

Dang you can't participate in the OCI process, that sucks. Congrats though! What are you going to do?

[ucc2207]

Trying to get in to OCI the email said it's closed but it doesn't close until the 7th.

[bsktbll28082]

Would it be worth it to go if no OCI?

[Nebby]

I think they still let transfers do OCI, but you just miss the bid deadline.

Sooo, what's that mean exactly? Do you still get interviews?

[ucc2207]

So they got back to me pretty quickly. I missed the preselect portion but the lottery is still open. I was total lottery makes up 70 percent of OCI don't know what that means exactly. Would you guys do it?

[JuniperCreekEsq]

don't really know enough about your situation. i wouldn't. OCI is important to me and i wouldn't rely on the lottery. my school has a lottery and i'm quite grateful that i'm relying on class rank and not my name getting drawn from a hat with 100s of others.

Just met with OCS and what it means is if a firm gets 21 interviews and 100 bids, they pick 30% out of those resumes they definitely want. Then the rest of the apps are throw into a lottery and chosen and if you are the 20th resume and you picked them 2, you could potentially get screwed.

If you're coming in from a t20 school, and you're ranked top 25%... then I wouldn't move. 1. you have connections where you're at; t20 and t14 isn't that big of a deal, 2. esp since you can't fully participate in the OCI process. and 3. you'll lose your gpa.

yes. no brainer, imho.

[ucc2207]

Appreciate the feedback. Does no debt if go to Georgetown change anyone's answer?

[KingsCup]

so while its not the best situation, it is still possible to participate in OCI as a transfer?

[k101010]

I agree with markdg90s. Prob not worth it to lose GPA at current school.

I got WL this morning. What do you guys think my chances are of getting off the WL? Should I write a LOCI?
