My Little Sister

Dear Ms. Yang                                                                                      It gives me great pleasure to inform you that the Committee on Admissions has voted to accept your application for admission to Georgetown University.  I am happy to offer you a place in the first-year class for the fall of 2011.                           You are to be congratulated on the distinction of being accepted under the Early Action program. Admission was especially competitive as offers were extended only to those candidates whose extraordinary academic and personal accomplishments ensured they would be admitted regardless of the strength of the remaining applicant pool.  This year, the Committee on Admissions considered over 6,600 applications, but limited the number of acceptances to approximately 17% of those who applied. Georgetown does not require Early Action candidates to confirm their enrollment immediately.  You must observe the Candidates' Reply Date of May 1, a common deadline for all applicants, but I do hope that we will hear from you as soon as your decision is certain.  When you have reached your decision, please return the enclosed enrollment agreement form together with the required non-refundable deposit to confirm your place.  Please read carefully the enclosed details for more information regarding your enrollment.  I also encourage you to visit the accepted student website for the most current updates about campus activities.                         I am pleased to speak on behalf of the entire Georgetown community in extending to you this offer of admission.  I look forward to welcoming you to the University as a member of the Class of 2015. Sincerely,  Charles A. Deacon Dean of Undergraduate Admissions (December 14, 2010)
