<p>Thank you for taking the time to read my message!
I am currently a Junior in a Top 20 NJ high school. My GPA is a 3.8, though this year I intend to bring it up. Since freshman year, I've taken honors English, history, and math courses. This year I am in AP US History II and plan on receiving a 4 or 5 on my exam. I have taken the SAT only once and received an 1800, though this score will improve. I hope to pass the 2000 mark. I plan on applying to GW ED!</p>

<p>Summer:
- This past summer I journeyed to Nicaragua for a social action group through Yale. We not only learned about the country's rich history, but we also also did community service in a small village. I worked for an AIDS outreach organization for three weeks. During this time I went to a state penitentiary and visited with AIDS-stricken prisoners. Among various things, I was on the state radio talking about my experience and how to fight AIDS.</p>

<p>You certainly look like a good candidate! Your community service reflects well, and your stats are well within those of the kids I know that got in this year.</p>

<p>I don’t see how you could get rejected! Good luck, I believe you’ll thrive here at GW!</p>

<p>You sound like my younger daughter, who applied ED this year and getting accepted was one of the best days of her life! If you can go for an interview you should, I am sure your enthusiasm for GW would come out.</p>
