CP subfield. I am a Georgetown undergraduate with a 4.0 GPA, Honors in the major, and 3 recommendation letters from professors in the department. Have also been a TA for 3 years and the editor-in-chief of our journal for 2 years. The only reason for rejection that I can think of is fit.

IR subfield, two MAs, 8/10GPA, no GRE

Don't mind. The professor I spoke to in the IR specialty before applying seemed so stuck up and full of himself that I wouldn't go even if they had accepted me.

Heartbroken. Was my top program. 1a/3w/4r/1p

Email acceptance. No words on funding (no funding for this program I think?)

Thank you for your application to the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at Georgetown University. This year, the Graduate School received over 10,000 applications for our Masters and Ph.D. programs. As you can understand, the selection process for admission to all of our programs is very competitive, and given the nature of graduate study, the number of students admitted to our programs must be severely limited. As a result, the Admissions Committee was forced to make many difficult choices among a pool of highly accomplished applicants. I would like to assure you that the Admissions Committee gave your application careful consideration; however, we regret to inform you that we are unable to approve your admission to the Ph.D. in Government program for the Fall 2025 semester. We appreciate your interest in Georgetown University and would like to wish you success in your future academic and career endeavors. Sincerely,

Got an email to check portal.
