Hey everyone, I'm really interested in applying to Georgetown and I was wondering if anyone knew the acceptance rate for the university. I'd appreciate any information on this, thanks in advance!
Hey! The acceptance rate at Georgetown University is typically around 12%. Keep in mind that this figure can change for future classes (overall, top-tier colleges have becoming more selective recently), but it should give you a ballpark idea of the selectivity of Georgetown. To maximize your chances of acceptance, make sure to focus on building a strong application including a solid transcript, well-crafted essays (you can read about how to tackle Georgetown's school-specific supplements on CollegeVine's blog: https://blog.collegevine.com/how-to-write-the-georgetown-university-essays), and robust extracurricular involvement.
Best of luck with your application to Georgetown!
