Are you sure you can afford ? I think you’d get in RD - not just ED. With ED you may get merit but anecdotally why give it to you ?

Run the NPC and make sure you can afford before applying.

I would submit the test. It’s in range and in the last CDS less than half submit.

But with first gen, I think you get in test or otherwise.

Best of luck

I think that you are likely to be accepted to GW. Make sure your family runs the Net Price Calculator (NPC) once GW updates its calculator for students entering in SY24-25, as there are some major changes happening how financial need is being calculated that will start in the SY24-25 year. Thus, any current NPC results may not be accurate compared to what will be available in a few months.
