Did Georgetown not give you CGSM membership, OnePlusOne ?

amj643 No as far as I can tell I was not offered any scholarship money from Georgetown. From what I have read, they dispersed most, if not all, of their scholarship funds to R1 admits. I'm hoping I get the fellowship from McCombs since I would really love to go there, and if I don't, I'll apply again next year since going into a six-figure debt to go to Georgetown isn't an exactly appealing choice.

angelfire213 my letter also came, although I'm pretty sure I already filled out the app that came with it online.

Sure, I get not receiving the fellowship. But what about Membership? Like, did they say anything about OP or CGSM Membership?

They did not mention OP or CGSM during my acceptance call, unless I blacked out from excitement but I remember trying to listen for any mention of CGSM or scholarships and I don't recall they talked about either at all.

it's just crazy...that your status on cgsm.org wasn't updated....did you call them to find out what's up? i would..they are very friendly and quick to answer..

Ahhh that sucks. I would presume your Online CGSM account has been updated with status regarding that. Honestly, if they're looking for other admitted students to apply for member, I think it might be worth a shot to write to CGSM or Georgetown and reconsider your membership application/essay. It couldn't hurt. If they can give you feedback, perhaps they'll let you re-write your membership essay and consider affording you another shot at membership. It still won't result in the fellowship, unfortunately, but at least you'd get membership and get to attend OP.

soooo now, to consortium or not to consortium.... any prior consortium members active here? would love to chat as to how valuable you feel the network has been post school...

Congrats on Kellogg Angelfire. Decisions decisions now...they offer you any $? Posted from my mobile device

thanks thanks, they did. about 70% tuition. sigh. it's harder than you think. Some of the schools i applied through cgsm, i really connected with the admissions. For instance - the UNC folks were amazing and really made me feel wanted..... hvae to keep telling myslef that that's their job and you don't really interact with them much once you're in.
