How hard is it to get into Georgetown?

In comparison to other schools? Is it up there with the ivies, or is it more like a Boston College/Middlebury/Hamilton? Please no “very hard/impossible” answers.

I have A/B+ grades in hard classes, I have overcome a major physical illness, and got myself into a very competitive prep school for senior year. I have played 2 sports, play 2 instruments, and have a job. I think I have pretty good chances, I am just wondering how competitive it is, thank you!

22% of applicants are admitted to Georgetown. It’s considered to be the 23rd best university in the country this year. This list doesn’t include liberal arts colleges, like Hamilton and Middlebury.

I personally think that you have a great chance of getting in, especially if you’re looking at schools like Middlebury and BC. Actually, I’d think that getting into Middlebury would be harder than getting accepted to Georgetown.

There are a few other factors that may influence your acceptance as well, such as volunteer work and geographical location.

Good luck!

Georgetown University is at the Ivy League level. Georgetown has been asked several times to join the Ivy League schools. Their acceptance rate is approximately 20%. With your grades and activities, you have a good chance of getting it.

However, I probably shouldn’t be telling you this because I will be applying there too! Good luck, though!

It’s highly competitive. When you write your essay for the admissions process it might be a good idea to explain how you overcame this illness and how doing so has made you a stronger person. That should go a long way in separating you from some of the other candidates. You might also look into volunteering around the community.

It is almost as hard as the Ivies — and a little harder than BC. Average SAT scores are in the 2100-2200 range (out of 2400) and 89% of those admitted graduated in the top 10% of their HS classes.
