<p>Take this advice for what it is (I’m also a potential student, so I cannot be 100% certain):</p>

<p>Although I have yet to be admitted (I’m an RD applicant), I’ve been told that I have solid admittance chances. Our stats are similar, so I would conclude that you also have solid admittance chances. </p>

<p>I would, though, as you have stated, take the SAT (or the ACT) again.</p>

<p>From the GWU website, their SAT/ACT stats are listed as follows:</p>

<p>Mid 50 percent SAT range: 1900-2100
Mid 50 percent ACT range: 28-31 </p>

<p>Otherwise, you’re set. Just be sure to demonstrate your interest! </p>

<p>Good luck and happy college shopping!</p>

<p>I think you are a good applicant, but the SAT is a little weak. Why don’t you try the ACT? Also, I don’t think GW is particularly fond of people who take the test too many times. Apply early and demonstrate a lot of interest!</p>

<p>Good chance with your grades and EC’s, but definitely try to raise your SAT score, or better yet try the ACT.
@Onlytimewilltell: I would have to disagree; I took the SAT 3 times and the ACT 3 times and was accepted ED1, so I don’t think it’ll hurt.</p>

<p>“Applicants are encouraged to limit the number of times they take the SAT or ACT.”</p>

<p>@onlytime they dont want you taking it like 40 times obviously but I took it three and I got in so i don’t think it matters.</p>

<p>as for the OP, you have a good chance if you raise your SAT score</p>
