Hoping to get good news today....good luck everyone.

I know their placement services get a bad name, but the Georgetown University name is very strong everywhere and I know they're working on the recruiting thing because that's the only thing holding them back right now with the new building. My Cousin graduated in the spring and was able to get a great position before graduation.

This wait is driving me crazy :x

I don't know where I got that 9 am idea from, but apparently I was mistaken, as is often the case.

Good luck guys (and gals)!

Hey guys - the app. asks us to put the resume in a particular format. However, the link to this format (which is provided on the app) is not working. Does anyone have the resume format for GTown app.? Thanks.

Have you formulated your waitlist strategy yet? Better yet, are you choosing to remain on the waitlist?

I think I am going to stay on the waitlist. I was waitlisted @ Wharton too, so that is my top choice. Not sure yet about a strategy.

What were your plans?
