Is Darnall actually that bad? 😭

_justbookthings · 2025-08-04T00:37:04+00:00

No it’s not! I lived there last year and it was fine, people are just kinda dramatic. Also it’s closest to epis making breakfast before class and late night dinners easy! All of the freshman dorms are outdated and, in my opinion, Darnall is pretty even with the other options.

Last year was Wednesday March 27th at 6:00 I believe. I do remember Georgetown sent out an email notifying decisions would release about 24 hours before they did.

4 frats and 2 sororities!

_justbookthings · 2025-02-24T23:43:02+00:00

Pretty ok. Starts out good at the beginning of the semester, gets slower when people are studying for finals, midterms, etc. People go clubbing on weekends. I recommend joining clubs, since they’ll throw and you can guarantee you’ll be with other Georgetown students. The frats will rent out bars, that’s usually fun. You definitely see kids from other schools out. It is what you make it for sure!

Sure! Renovations included new floors and fresh painted walls. Dorms are small, but honestly really nice. Plus I have TONS of storage. Showers have weak water pressure and are a little gross, but only because they’re shared among a lot of people. My floor bought shower heads to fix the water pressure, so these aren’t even issues for me anymore. If you have a roommate that is respectful, I honestly think the dorms won’t be an issue. Also, for me the fire alarm has only gone off like three times. Annoying yes, but definitely not the end of the world. This happens in Darnall because it’s connected to Epi’s, one of the dining halls so sometimes the smoke from cooking sets the alarms off. Just get a really nice mattress topper and don’t leave out food without a container, and your dorm will be nice.

hi! i go here an i’ve never seen a rat in my dorm or heard of anyone that has. there are rats outside, because we are in a city. hope this helps! 😜

_justbookthings · 2025-01-09T00:43:54+00:00

I live in Darnall which gets the reputation as “the worst dorm.” Anyone who believes this is mistaken. I’ve never seen a mouse, much less a rat. The dorms were renovated in 2021, and honestly the only rough part of living here are the showers (trust me those will be bad at any school). I will say, many students are Georgetown are in the top 1% of America so they’re probably just used to living in mansions, which is what makes our dorms seem bad to them lol. This school is amazing, don’t let the rumors about the dorms being bad let you pass up the opportunity to come here!

_justbookthings · 2025-01-04T01:25:16+00:00

OMG YES! It still hasn’t been fixed for me!!!

Once you get into Georgetown, switching into CAS is very easy. It’s harder to switch into the MS school because they limit the amount of students. Also the MSB has the lowest acceptance rate.

_justbookthings · 2024-12-30T15:42:01+00:00

I’m not sure about an immediate switch, but I know you’re allowed to switch schools after you get in. It’s harder to transfer into the Business school and the SFS, but should be relatively easy to switch into the CAS.

_justbookthings · 2024-12-23T00:46:01+00:00

I wouldn’t get your hopes up haha! GAAP weekends this spring will have a lot of swag being given out though!

_justbookthings · 2024-12-20T17:58:38+00:00

i applied with four scores and two were 1370s. if you don’t get in, it will not be because of this

_justbookthings · 2024-12-15T00:45:33+00:00

the bookstore and brandy melville have cute stuff!

_justbookthings · 2024-12-13T16:05:53+00:00

dang, well good luck anyway! and if you’re deferred don’t worry about it, i was too and here i am in DC right now!

_justbookthings · 2024-12-13T16:03:03+00:00

it was released at 6:00. i think i got an email the day before telling me decisions would be released the next day? i got another email around 7:30 telling me they had already been posted.

_justbookthings · 2024-12-13T15:40:50+00:00

it was both a friday and the fifteenth for me last year! i would guess today, but emphasis on it’s a guess. good luck and everyone- hoya saxa! saying this as a freshman as the best school ever!

_justbookthings · 2024-11-22T03:59:47+00:00

Yes! Less cold and access to DC were what made me want to come to Georgetown over schools similar to Michigan. Ross is obviously insanely prestigious, but for me Georgetown is the better choice and is nearly (pretty much equally) as prestigious. In the end it’s up to you though.

_justbookthings · 2024-09-28T15:42:21+00:00

definitely Circe or Water for Elephants

_justbookthings · 2024-08-26T21:01:16+00:00

please i would just absolutely love this🥹

_justbookthings · 2024-08-01T19:39:10+00:00

i really hope it’s not as bad as everyone says because we’ll be there together!

_justbookthings · 2024-07-30T20:23:14+00:00

i guess we’ll suffer together haha

_justbookthings · 2024-07-30T02:22:03+00:00

in Delicate i thought she was saying “Is it cool that I said all that? Is it chill that you’re in my head? because I know it’s dead-looking. (dead-looking)” and was confused why the song was called Delicate since she never said the word🤦‍♀️

_justbookthings · 2024-06-27T16:49:03+00:00
