If GW feels like you really want to attend and you are not using them for a “safety:” then you have a really good chance.

3

You’re a solid match for GW. Just make sure you sell your interest in the school.

4

You should be good to go. GW does not track interest

5

That’s not true.

If I went to an information session/tour and the visit when they came to my school, is that enough demonstrated interest? Or do I need to email an admission rep or something like that?

@arsenaljfdkaslj that definitely helps. As far as whether it’s “enough” is not entirely known by me. The way I see it is that if GW is where you really want to end-up, are you willing to take the time to send an email to the admissions rep as well?
