Georgetown Application Status

JDsalinger

Is it possible to check the status of an application other than waiting for a piece of mail?

I applied 6 weeks ago early decision. They guarantee response in 4 weeks, but I haven't yet heard from them. I live in a NYC apartment, so there's a that a piece of mail got lost. Wondering at what point I should take next steps (for example, calling admissions office?)

When you apply, schools usually email you for an Application Status Checker user ID and a password, which is usually in the receipt confirmation email. Have you received it? If not, you should probably call them.

I have received it. My application says "completed" on the online portal, however Georgetown doesn't subsequently change the online status after a decision is rendered.

I haven't received a ding/waitlist email yet - so I'm just nervous that a letter may have gotten lost in the mail.

It seems weird that they would guarantee a response in 4 weeks and then take 6+ to respond. Maybe that's normal though.
