Chances at George Washington University

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>GWU is definitely where I want to attend college, however I’m not sure I have a chance. My SAT scores are low, I only have a 1700. My u.w. GPA is a 3.86 and weighted is a 4.65. Also I am ranked 7/173. My school does not offer many honors/AP classes and I have taken pretty much every one of them. I had an interview at GWU this past September and my intended major is Political Science or Criminal Justice. </p>

<p>GWU - High Reach</p>

3

<p>GWU: Reach (can you afford ED?)</p>

4

<p>GWU’s ED date has already past</p>

5

<p>My bad… I always thought of GWU as having ED2, but it’s still a reach.</p>

6

<p>That’s ok, thank you for responding!</p>

7

<p>You have everything in line except for that SAT- but there’s a chance they’ll forgive that if your essays and things are good enough. Reach.</p>

8

<p>I was thinking the same thing, everything was fine except my SAT. When I went to visit they mentioned that they do not get a lot of applicants from the southeast, considering I’m form NC maybe it could give me a tiny bit of an edge.</p>

<p>Someone else please chance me! The more thoughts the better!</p>

10

<p>Reach. SAT is low.</p>

<p>Catria- gwu does have ed2.</p>

<p>The deadline to apply for ED2 has passed but if this is something you want to do I would call and ask and they still may allow you too. </p>

<p>Applying ED2 will really help your chances of getting in.</p>

13

<p>Already applied to Emory and Oxford College ED2</p>

14

<p>I haven’t but I am sure someone has. You will have better luck getting an answer to your question if you put it on your thread or at least an already started emory one.</p>

15

<p>IMO, you should have used ED 2 for GWU… Emory is high reach(higher than GWU) for you…</p>

16

<p>faithsposts-I would say that you have a decent shot, I think your SAT is in a good range for GWU. As well as your uw gpa, I thought your weighted might be a little higher considering how good your uw is. However I think you would have a decent chance, better than I.</p>

<p>Hi! I am here to chance back!</p>

<p>Is there any possible way you could retake the SAT?</p>

<p>SAT score is the only thing thats holding you back!!</p>

18

<p>Yes I am really starting to think about it now!</p>
