Just got an email saying I'm being considered for a merit-based scholarship!
Does anyone know how they are with money??

Same here... I'm not sure how to approach replying to this:

"We know it’s early, but we are interested in knowing such things as where Georgetown fits into your thinking and what level of funding would make a difference in your decision."

I'm wondering about this too. At this point I'm pretty sure I won't be attending, but I guess a hefty scholarship could change my mind, so maybe it's worth saying that? That just seems like an awkward thing to ask us...

Edit- Btw taikfox, we have exactly the same stats, I'll be curious where you end up!

I have been complete since 12/13 and have had no updates or anything since then.....

I don't really expect to get in but I haven't heard anything at all yet. Do I need to send a LOCI? I've only seen a few people post that they have not seen activity; so is this not common?

I intend on being pretty straight up and telling them it will take a boat load of money to get me to gtown (albeit in nicer terms).

Yeah, I've been complete since 12/19 and have been debating the same thing...no interview request either...accepted so far at the schools below, so i'm hoping georgetown will be the next acceptance!

[amantedevie]

Hey- does anyone know what has been happening for those who were accepted? Meaning, when people have been able to generate a UN/PW for ASW before getting acceptance letters, did the status checker still show complete or did it update first to say a decision had been made?

Thanks!

Question to anybody out there that has sent in an loci...does Georgetown send you confirmation that it has been added to your file?

yup! it scared me because the e-mail started off with "Thank you for your interest in Georgetown Law" and i thought it was a rejection but it was just them confirming that it had been put into my file

[eaper]

I could generate the PW 4 days before being able to log in. I then received something in the mail 4 days or so after that. Status checker is still on "complete".

Hey guys,

I'm sure this has been asked numerous times, but I was just invited to do an interview. Any specific questions I should prep for? Thanks so much! :]

You should definitely know the answer to "why georgetown." Beyond that, just enjoy a nice conversation with a successful gtown alumnus/a.

Do all applicants get invitations for interviews? If no, what percent do?

[Excellent117]

Why does my completed date keep changing on my status checker?

[mizzy]

1/12, 1/30, 2/2

I also went complete for the third time today, and I think my change dates are very similar to yours, but don't really remember! I don't know what it means, but hopefully it means that a decision will be reached soon. Georgetown is a reach for me, but I'm still hopeful! I applied ED first week of January. Is it true that they promise a decision within 3 weeks for ED apps? I didn't know that until I read it on here somewhere... but if so, it has been over three weeks.
