<p>These are my top 3 schools, and I'm hoping I have a chance of getting some merit scholarships at GW and American, but I'm not expecting any financial aid money at all. What are my chances of getting in/getting scholarships at these three schools?</p>

<p>American is a low low safety I would aim a little higher! GW seems like a good fit!</p>

<p>As a GW alum, it looks like you have a great chance!</p>

<p>However, like I tell everyone else- you should really put some heart and soul into your essay. I think GW changed their format and let you answer one of four questions, aiming at getting to know you as an individual. Put a lot of thought into it, prof-read the heck out of it, and let 'em have it!</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
