With an adcom member.

Does anyone know how many people of the waitlist actually get an admit?

For those that had an interview already, was it with a student or Adcom?

I haven't had an interview yet, but am scheduled to have one on Wednesday morning. The website where I registered had the name of each interviewer as part of the interview details. I Googled most of the people available for the next few weeks and they seemed to all be current students.

Perhaps they have adcoms do some of them and students do some, but my options seemed to be students. Hope this helps!

Thanks buddy! Yes, sounds pretty much like standard stuff. What was the mode of the interview - F2F with AdCom, telephonic, or alum?

It was a face to face interview with adcom.

Interviews are with students, they don't see anything beforehand. I think they fill out a form online afterwards, but I'm not sure because I didn't have time to fill out the application.

I'll be working the club fair on welcome weekend for the Beer Society, stop by and say hi. I'd give you the link to our website, but we're not done building it yet.

Guys, a friend got admits for both Georgetown and Darden. The offer of admission from Georgetown came with a 2-year full tuition scholarship while Darden's had none. She's inclined to go to Georgetown because of the financial incentive and also because of Georgetown's location - D.C., city... But Darden is still higher ranked and is rated to be a better general management school. Her background is in corporate accounting, from Asia. Any advice?

OT: I thought the scholarship decision for Darden will only be released next week? It will be stated in the official admission letter.

Sorry for the confusion. Turns out Sarah Neher just called those granted a scholarship. And my friend got full ride as well. Sweet!

We have classes on Friday that week, which is too bad. Otherwise there'd be a keg party in the commons on Thursday night that you could stick around for. You can shoot me a PM if you want to meet up and get some coffee or a drink Wednesday night and talk about Georgetown before your interview. That goes for anyone in here. I'll try and be as available as possible if you guys have any questions/interests.

For those coming to admit weekend I'll be manning the Beer Club table at the club fair, stop by to chat. We've got a bunch of cool stuff going on this semester and planned for the fall.
