Georgetown Demonstrated Interest: Do they consider it?

Hi guys! I'm applying to Georgetown and I was wondering if they consider demonstrated interest when reviewing applications? Should I make an effort to show my interest in the school, or just focus on submitting a strong application?

Georgetown does not explicitly state that they consider demonstrated interest in their admissions process. However, making an effort to show your genuine interest in the school never hurts and could help give admissions officers a better understanding of your fit with the university.

Although it may not be a significant factor in admissions decisions, demonstrating interest can help you in a variety of ways. For example, attending events like virtual information sessions, regional presentations, or campus tours can give you deeper insights into the university's culture, academic programs, and extracurricular offerings. These experiences can then be incorporated into your application, such as in your essays or interviews, to better explain why Georgetown is the right fit for you.

Remember that submitting a strong application should be your primary focus. Make sure you have a well-rounded resume with solid extracurriculars, impressive academics, and compelling essays. Demonstrated interest can be an additional, although not crucial, component in your application process. So, focus on putting forth the best application possible, and if you have the means and time to demonstrate your interest in Georgetown, it can be a valuable addition.
