<p>you should be ok with some strong essays and an interview</p>

<p>Make your supplements focus on why you belong at GW, read the school website thoroughly, if you are applying for an honors program or some other specific program, know about that program and relate it to you and how you will fit in that program. My child never did an interview (applied at the end of December) but made sure the essays really showed how my child would be a great fit for the program.</p>
