email sent directly from the department. so excited.

Ignore status. Does anyone know what's going on with Georgetown? I saw some were interviewed- do all those admitted get interviewed? Those of us that weren't interviewed should assume rejection? When are they expected to release decisions? Any information?

E-mail said I was waitlisted. No further info about procedures or anything.

I received a very kind and gentle rejection email from the department. I thought I had a good fit. LA is a little bit disappointing.

Wasn't a great pit, so expected.
