If possible, try to get some volunteer experience this year before you apply. Your academic stats look great, and it’s quite possible you could get in with those and a solid essay alone, but if you really want to have a great shot, another EC or volunteer work would really help.
Just to be clear, I’m not saying that you won’t get in with your current stats. I just wanted to offer advice if you want to make your application stronger. I think if you had a little more on the EC side you’d have an excellent chance at getting in- just make sure your essay shows how badly you want to go to GW!

@timpi21 Your stats look solid so I think you’ve got a great chance at getting accepted, especially if applying ED. If you can find other ways at conveying interest (campus tour, interview, strong essay, etc) I’d be surprised if you didn’t get in.
Also, for future reference, you should start a new thread instead of posting in someone else’s. If nothing else it ensures that more people will see you question.
